A simple but easy and tasty way to make a boneless turkey breast.

SERVES 3 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 3-3 1/2 lbs boneless turkey breast
  • 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning

  • 3 (14 ounce) cans reduced-fat chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Directions

  1. 1
    Remove turkey from wrapper and set gravy packet in refrigerator for the time being.
  2. 2
    Leave netting on turkey breast and keep the turkey in one piece; rub turkey down on both sides with poultry seasoning and set in crock pot.
  3. 3
    Add 2 cans of chicken broth to the crock pot, set to low, and cook for 8-10 hours.
  4. 4
    At about the 5-6 hour mark, turn the turkey over, and add one more can of broth to the crock pot.
  5. 5
    At the end of the cooking time, remove turkey from the pot and place in a shallow baking pan, remove the netting, rub the top with butter, and set under a broiler in the oven to crisp up a bit.
  6. 6
    Allow the turkey to sit 15 minutes before cutting.
  7. 7
    If you wish, use a portion of the pan juices to pour over some of your dressing/stuffing if you made some to give it extra flavor.
  8. 8
    Use the remaining pan juices mixed with the gravy packet in a saucepan on the stove, heated with some cornstarch or flour to make a gravy for the meat.

    THIS IS A GREAT IDEA & RECIPE! I don't know that I will ever make a turkey in the oven again. I have a 7 qty crock pot and used an 8 lb de-thawed BONE-IN Turkey Breast. I added the recommended spices, 2 bay leaves, 10 cloves of garlic, 1 cup chopped carrots, 1 cup chopped celery and one chopped medium onion. I added 1 can chicken of chicken broth, not all 3. It made a lot of gravy (after the turkey was cooked I strained out the veggies, removed the fat and added 2 packs dry of turkey gravy mix). Thanks so much for this great recipe!!!

    I used a 4.5 pound bone-in turkey breast and cooked it 8.5 hours which was probably one hour too long. Got busy and the time got away from me. I skipped the butter/broiling process and only needed one can of broth.
