Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375ðF (190ðC). Pat the 3 lb turkey breast dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper.
  2. In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, paprika, tamari, and frozen orange juice concentrate until well combined.
  3. Place the turkey breast in a roasting pan. Pour half of the orange-tamari mixture over the meat, reserving the rest for the glaze.
  4. Roast the turkey in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 165ðF (74ðC).
  5. While the turkey roasts, combine the reserved sauce with the cornstarch in a small saucepan. Whisk constantly over medium heat until it thickens into a smooth glaze.
  6. Stir in the no-sugar-added marmalade and cook for another minute until glossy and fragrant.
  7. Remove the turkey from the oven. Brush generously with the marmalade glaze.
  8. Return the turkey to the oven for 5-10 minutes to set the glaze, watching closely to prevent burning.
  9. Let the turkey rest for 10 minutes before slicing to allow juices to redistribute.
  10. Slice against the grain and serve with extra glaze drizzled on top.
