  • 1 whole bone-in turkey breast (5 to 8 lb)

  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • 4 cloves garlic, sliced

Instructions

  • Step 
    1
    Heat grill for indirect cooking as directed by manufacturer. If ribs and backbone of turkey breast are attached, cut off with sharp knife or scissors so breast will be stable on grill. Loosen skin from turkey breast.

    2
    In small bowl, mix preserves and lemon juice until blended. Spread half of preserves mixture over meat under skin. Slide rosemary and garlic under skin.
