When cooking this Thanksgiving choose whole and real foods over processed and fake foods. Yes it is much easier & quicker to make mashed potatoes out of a box but it is healthier both physically and mentally for you and your family. Putting your heart into the food you prepare for your family fills the need for your Primary Foods or the food that feed your soul rather than your stomach.
Here is a quick & yummy recipe for you to try this holiday.
Ginger Maple Turkey Breast
Ingredients:
1/4 c. reduced sodium soy sauce
2 Tbsp. canola oil
2 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. ginger root, minced
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
1/8 tsp. ground cloves
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 7 to 8 lb. bone - in, skin - on turkey breast
Olive oil
Preparation:
Whisk together the soy sauce, oil, maple syrup, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, black pepper, cloves and cayenne pepper in a glass or porcelain dish large enough to hold the turkey. Place turkey in marinade and turn to coat thoroughly. Marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a heavy rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly coat with olive oil. Remove turkey from marinade and place skin side up on baking sheet. Discard remaining marinade. Roast turkey for 2 to 2 1/2 hours. The temperature should read 170 degrees on a meat thermometer. Remove turkey breast from oven and let rest for 15 minutes before carving and serving. Remove skin before eating.
