Have You Tried a 30-Minute Turkey Breast?

In summary, the cooking time for a 30-minute turkey breast can vary but as a general guideline, it should take approximately 30 minutes to cook a 2-pound turkey breast in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. A 30-minute turkey breast can also be cooked in the microwave, but using the oven or grill is recommended for better flavor. If the turkey breast is frozen, it is best to thaw it before cooking for even cooking. Popular seasonings for a 30-minute turkey breast include garlic, thyme, rosemary, and sage, or you can use a pre-made seasoning blend or barbecue sauce. Leftover turkey can be stored in the refrigerator for 3-4 days and used in various dishes.

Hello and hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

Tonight I tried out the 30-minute Chicken in the Deep Covered Baker and was impressed - very moist and tender even with removing the skin before cooking. My test subject, Ariel, is ready to order the baker next week when it goes on special :)

Has anyone tried this cooking method with a turkey breast? If so, what if any adjustments do you have to make as there are no bones and it's denser than a chicken?

Thank you!
Susan
 
I'm interested to hear how it turned out too...
 
There was a thread on here about the Turkey Breast in the DCB, but now I can't find it - I've never done it myself - but I know there are people who have done it successfully.
Sorry I don't have any more info than that!
