How to Make Fruited Turkey Breast
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Place the turkey breast (approximately 3-4 lbs), skin-side up, in a 13x9 inch baking pan.
- Sprinkle 1 teaspoon dried thyme and 1 teaspoon dried rosemary evenly over the turkey breast.
- Roast uncovered for 25 minutes.
- Remove from oven. Drain off and discard any excess fat and juices.
- Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (177°C).
- Arrange the following around the turkey breast: 1 medium onion, quartered; 1 bell pepper (any color), chopped; 1 cup chopped carrots; 1/2 cup dried cranberries or cherries; 1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cubed; 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained).
- In a small bowl, whisk together: 1/2 cup reserved pineapple juice, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 2 tablespoons ketchup, and 1/4 cup dry red wine.
- Pour the sauce evenly over and around the turkey and vegetables.
- Loosely cover the pan with foil.
- Return to the oven and bake for 1 hour.
- Remove foil and continue baking for 20-30 minutes, basting occasionally with the pan juices, until the turkey reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the sauce has thickened.
