If you are looking for a simple yet delicious recipe for your turkey, this is it. Perfectly juicy turkey breast, golden brown on the outside which keeps all the juices locked in.

This will be a hit with everyone around the table whether you make it for a holiday meal or just a Sunday family dinner.

This makes a rich broth that you can save and use for all your favorite keto recipes. Add some xanthan gum to thicken for a delicious gravy that you can pour over your cauliflower mash and turkey for a satisfying meal.
