Scale

- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a roasting pan with parchment paper.
- Pat the turkey breast dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper inside and out.
- In a bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, herbs, and lemon juice to create a flavor mixture. Rub this mixture all over the turkey breast.
