chicken broth

🥗Healthier: vegetable broth

💰Cheaper: water with seasoning

Vegetable broth is lower in calories and can be made at home.

Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Meanwhile, add the minced garlic, oil, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper to a small bowl and mix all these spices together.

Place the fresh turkey breast on a large plate. Brush the turkey breast with the oil and spice mix on both sides.

When the air fryer is hot, add the turkey breast into the air fryer basket.

Air fry the turkey breast at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 to 30 minutes until fully cooked. Flip after 15 minutes in the air fryer. The internal temperature should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit - it’s best to check with a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the turkey breast. If your turkey breast is bigger than one pound, the cook time will be longer, likely between 30 and 40 minutes. Every air fryer cooks different so these times are guidelines only and can vary.

When the turkey breast is done, remove it from the air fryer and place it on a plate. Cover it with tin foil and let it rest for 7-10 minutes. This is important as it allows the juices to reabsorb (don’t skip this step). Then serve with side dishes of your choice. Enjoy!
