Slow-Cooker Turkey Breast Recipe

Recipe By Southern Living

This slow-cooked turkey breast is sure to inspire your healthiest, most delicious weeknight meals yet. Unlike roasting, slow-cooking locks in moisture, creating juicy and flavorful meat. Keep the skin on while cooking to seal in the herbed butter rub. Turkey is always an appealing weeknight addition because of its healthy, lean meat, but its not always seen as the most inspiring of dishes. If not kept under the correct conditions with proper pampering, it becomes dry and tough. To get the right amount of flavor and moistness, slow cooking is the answer. Relaxed winter nights call for satisfying weeknight suppers that dont sacrifice taste for ease. This slow-cooker turkey breast recipes calls for thyme, garlic, rosemary, sage, lemon zest, and black pepper, ensuring a deeply seasoned result. We developed three delicious recipes to accompany this slow-cooked turkey breast that we think your family will love. Choose the kentucky hot brown casserole for a filling, one-dish meal, the turkey with shallot-mustard sauce and roasted potatoes for a casual, no-fuss supper, or the wedge salad with turkey and blue cheese-buttermilk dressing for a hearty weekday lunch. You cant go wrong with this good-for-you protein-packed base for any meal this season. Bonus points for being able to switch on the slow cooker and forget about it for five hours
