    This is a perfect dish to cook for Thanksgiving since the turkey does not take up the entire oven and you can cook other things at the same time and still have turkey.

    Ingredients

    • 1 thawed turkey breast on the bone (about 6 pounds)
    • Salt and pepper
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • ¼ cup chopped onion
    • 1 clove garlic, minced
    • 1 cup Cherry preserves
    • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Place turkey breast baking dish and rub with salt and pepper. Prepare glaze by heating olive oil in a small saucepan and sautéing the onion and garlic until tender, 6-8 minutes. Add preserves and vinegar and continue cooking over medium heat until thickened, about 8-10 minutes. Brush glaze on turkey and place in preheated oven. Brush with additional glaze every 30 minutes, cooking turkey 2-2 1/2 hours or until internal temperature of the thickest portion registers 170°F. Remove from heat and let rest 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
