Ingredients
– 4 pound turkey breast, on the bone with skin (ribs removed)
– 1 tablespoon oil
– 2 teaspoons kosher salt
– 1/2 tablespoon dry turkey or poultry seasoning (without salt)
Instructions
1-First: rub 1/2 tablespoon of oil all over the turkey breast and season both sides with the 2 teaspoons of kosher salt and 1/2 tablespoon of dry turkey or poultry seasoning. Remember to rub the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of oil over the skin side for extra crispiness. Preheat your air fryer to 350Β°F to set the stage for perfect cooking.
2-Next: place the turkey breast skin side down in the air fryer basket and cook for 20 minutes. Flip it over and continue cooking until the internal temperature hits 160Β°F this usually takes another 30 to 40 minutes. Always use an instant-read thermometer to check for doneness, as itβs the best way to avoid dry meat.
3-After cooking: let the turkey rest for 10 minutes before carving; this step helps the juices settle. Slice it up and serve with your favorite sides for a complete meal. If youβre looking for complementary recipes, try our lemon blueberry bread as a fresh accompaniment.
