How to Make Apricot Turkey Breast
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a medium-sized baking dish with cooking spray.
- Place the turkey breast in the prepared baking dish.
- Spread 1/2 cup apricot preserves evenly over the turkey breast.
- In a shallow dish, soak 4 slices of bread (about 1/2 inch thick) in 1/2 cup onion soup mix dissolved in 1/2 cup water until softened.
- Arrange the soaked bread slices over the apricot-glazed turkey breast, completely covering it.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the turkey registers 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
- Let the turkey rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Mash the remaining bread and serve it alongside the sliced, roasted turkey.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
