Turkey Breast ala Speedy

Although I am not a fan of meat cooked in a microwave here is a, sort of quick, method that produces very tender slices of turkey breast.

INGREDIENTS :

4 to 7 pound turkey breast, thawed
1 Reynolds Oven Bag, large size (14″ x 20″)
1 Tablespoon flour
1 medium onion, sliced
2 stalks celery, sliced
1 Tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper

DIRECTIONS:

Shake flour into Reynolds Oven Bag, temporarily twist it shut and rotate it to coat all of the insides. Place the bag in a 2″ microwave-safe baking dish.

Add onion and celery to bag. Arrange ingredients in an even layer. Brush turkey breast with vegetable oil. Sprinkle with seasoned salt and pepper. Place turkey breast on top of vegetables in bag. Close the bag with the included nylon tie. Cut six 1/2″ slits in the top.

Microwave on MEDIUM or 50% Power until turkey breast registers 170 degrees F on a microwave safe meat thermometer, about 11-13 minutes per pound. Rotate dish every 15 minutes. If you don’t have a microwave safe thermometer probe, test for internal temperature every 15 minutes starting at 45 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
