Ingredients

Instructions

  • Combine buttermilk, garlic, lemon, rosemary, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
  • Place turkey in a large resealable container or baggie.
  • Pour in the buttermilk mixture. Seal the container and place in refrigerator for 8 hours, turning the breast every hour so that each side gets some time in the marinade.
  • Fire up your Big Easy.
  • Remove the turkey breast from the marinade, which you will discard.
  • Pat the breast dry and rub a small amount of olive oil all over the turkey. Transfer to the Big Easy basket
  • Transfer basket to the Big Easy and cook until the breast measures 165 F as tested in several locations. Use 10 minutes per pound as your starting point. My turkey, a 10 pounder, took 110 minutes.
  • Remove the basket from the Big Easy. Let cool slightly before removing the breast to a cutting board. Let rest another 15 minutes before carving.
