When you’re in the mood for a different-from-the-usual main dinner dish, but you don’t want to compromise on taste, this is your answer. Don’t be frightened by the ground cloves. They add an excellent flavor.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Place pickled turkey breast in a large pot. Add water to cover. Bring the water to a rolling boil and continue to boil for 5 minutes. Drain water from the turkey breast and move it to a roasting pan.
In a saucepan, combine the brown sugar, pineapple juice, honey, orange juice, Dijon mustard, and ground cloves. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5–10 minutes. Pour over turkey breast and bake for 1 hour.
Baste turkey breast and bake for an additional 30 minutes, basting every 10 minutes. Slice and serve.
I’ve made this in the past and it’s delicious. I have not been able to find pickled turkey breast since Covid….how would I go about pickling the turkey breast myself before I can make this?
the whole time un covered in the oven?
The temperature and uncovered the whole time is correct because it’s pickled 🙂
