Time 2h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

1/4 cup whole-grain mustard (recommended: Maille)
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon allspice
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 (4 1/2 to 5-pound) turkey breast, on the bone, rinsed and patted dry with paper towels
10 cipollini onions
3 medium carrots, peeled, and cut into 2-inch pieces
2 cups low-sodium chicken stock
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, for seasoning

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
In a small bowl, mix together the mustard, garlic, cumin, oregano, allspice, chili powder, brown sugar and oil. Place the turkey breast in a 9 by13-inch roasting pan. Spread the mustard mixture over the top and sides of the turkey to form a crust. Add the onions, carrots, and chicken stock to the pan. Roast for 45 minutes. Cover the pan loosely with foil and continue to bake for another 45 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 175 degrees F. Allow the turkey to rest for 20 minutes before serving.
Remove the vegetables and arrange on a serving platter. Remove the turkey and place on a cutting board. Pour about 1/2 cup of the pan juices into a small saucepan. Whisk in the flour until smooth. Whisk in the remaining pan juices. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until the mixture thickens. Season the pan juices with salt and pepper and pour into a serving pitcher.
To serve, slice the turkey into 1/4-inch slices. Arrange the turkey slices on the serving platter with the roasted vegetables and serve with the pan juices.

Yield 8 servings

Ingredients

2 teaspoons paprika
1 1/4 teaspoons chipotle chile powder
1 teaspoon celery salt
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Kosher salt
One 5- to 6-pound bone-in, whole turkey breast

Preheat a grill for indirect cooking at about 350 degrees F.
Mix the paprika, chipotle powder, celery salt, coriander, cumin and 1 tablespoon salt together in a small bowl. Rub the mixture all over the turkey breast, getting some under the skin as well.
Grill the turkey over indirect heat, rotating once halfway through, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the middle (do not touch bone) registers 165 degrees, about 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes. Transfer the turkey to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes.
Carefully slice each half of the turkey breast off the bone, then slice the meat crosswise. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with the herbs and sliced citrus.
