Time 1h25m

Yield 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped thyme
4 cloves garlic, grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 2 1/2-pound skin-on, bone-in turkey breast
1 pound cippolini, peeled and halved
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F, with a rack in the position third from the top and another just below it.
  • Combine 4 tablespoons of the butter, 1 tablespoon of the parsley, the thyme and garlic in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Place the turkey, skin-side up, on a rack set in a rimmed baking sheet. Rub the herb butter over the turkey and underneath the skin. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper.
  • Toss together the cippolini, vinegar and oil in a 1-quart ovenproof baking dish. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Place the turkey on the higher oven rack and the cippolini on the rack below. Roast until the cippolini are cooked through and tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the turkey registers 155 degrees F, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Stir the remaining 2 tablespoons butter into the cippolini. Let the turkey rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  • To serve, cut the turkey off the bone and slice thinly. Divide among plates and top with the cippolini. Garnish with the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley.
