Although serving a whole turkey at holiday time makes a beautiful presentation, if you’re having a crowd, you may find roasting a breast is much easier. With just a simple savory dry rub paired with a slightly sweet maple-orange glaze, you can prepare this lovely roasted turkey breast with little effort, giving you more time to spend with your guests.
Make Ahead and Storage Tips: turkey breast may be prepared with dry rub up to one day before roasting. Cover and refrigerate. Turkey may be roasted and sliced up to 2 days ahead; cover and refrigerate. (For added moisture and flavor, toss turkey slices with some plain chicken broth or a combination of orange, juice, maple syrup and broth.) Reheat, covered at 325 degrees F for about 15 to 20 minutes or until heated through. Baste occasionally with pan juices. Cooked turkey breast may be frozen tightly covered for up to 4 months.
