Olive-Brined Air Fryer Turkey Breast
Description
An easy recipe for making savory, juicy turkey breast in an air fryer. Using olive brine gives the breast flavor and also keeps it tender.
Ingredients
•
3/4 cup brine from a can of olives
•
1/2 cup buttermilk
•
3 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless turkey breast
•
1 sprig fresh rosemary
•
2 sprigs fresh thyme
Directions
1
Whisk together olive brine and buttermilk. Put the turkey breast into a resealable plastic bag and pour brine-buttermilk mixture into the bag. Add rosemary and thyme sprigs. Seal bag and refrigerate for 8 hours.
2
Take the bag out of the fridge and allow to rest until the breast reaches room temperature.
3
Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
4
Cook the breast in the air fryer for 15 minutes. Flip over the breast and cook for 5 minutes until turkey breast is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). If internal temperature is lower, keep cooking at 5 minute intervals until the correct temperature is reached.
