LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 325°F. Place turkey breast, skin side up, on rack in shallow roasting pan. Insert meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of meat and does not touch bone. Roast uncovered 1 hour.
  • 2 Cut rind from pineapple. Cut pineapple lengthwise in half; cut out core. Cut each half crosswise into 8 slices. Mix wine, honey, soy sauce, gingerroot and garlic. Arrange pineapple on rack around turkey. Brush turkey and pineapple with wine mixture. Roast uncovered about 1 hour longer, brushing turkey and pineapple frequently with wine mixture, until thermometer reads 165°F. Remove turkey and pineapple from pan; keep warm. Discard any remaining wine mixture.
  • 3 Pour pan drippings into measuring cup; skim off any excess fat. Add enough water to drippings to measure 1 cup. Heat drippings to boiling in 1-quart saucepan. Mix cornstarch and cold water; stir into drippings. Boil and stir 1 minute. Serve with turkey.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Mixing cornstarch with cold water first helps prevent lumping that would otherwise occur if cornstarch alone were added directly to the hot liquid.

This is a great recipe. The flavor of the meat was unique and delicious, and it was very moist. I served it to a group of ten (used two 3-Lb. breasts with one pineapple and single recipe of glaze mixture). Everyone from the 2-year-old to the 85-year-old 'gobbled' it heartily.

Very mild flavor...turkey turned out very moist. Definitely watch your cooking time...my turkey was almost done after just one hour.
