Prep: 10 min. Bake: 1-1/2 hours + standing

Yield: 10 Servings

10 90 100

Ingredients

1/4 cup canola oil
1 envelope onion soup mix
4-1/2 teaspoons lime juice
1-1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 bone-in turkey breast (6 to 7 pounds)

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. With fingers, carefully loosen skin from the turkey breast; rub half of mixture under the skin. Secure skin to underside of breast with toothpicks. Rub skin with remaining mixture. Place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.
Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 1-1/2 to 2 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 170°. (Cover loosely with foil if turkey browns too quickly.) Cover and let stand for 15 minutes before slicing; discard toothpicks. Yield: 10 servings.
