Follow The Directions

01

Step

Rinse turkey breast and pat thoroughly dry with paper towels; season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Carefully place butter slices, 1/4 cup of the chopped onion, 2 rosemary sprigs, and 2 thyme sprigs into the turkey breast cavity. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Place celery leaves, the remaining chopped white onion, 3 rosemary sprigs, and 3 thyme sprigs into the bottom of a slow cooker. Lay turkey breast over the vegetable and herb bed, positioning it with the top facing down. Pour white wine into the slow cooker. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Cover and cook on High heat until the meat is exceptionally tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast meat registers 170 degrees F (75 degrees C), approximately 6 hours. Once cooked, allow the turkey breast to rest for 15 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute. (6 hours 15 minutes)

For an even more intense flavor, consider browning the turkey breast in a skillet before placing it in the slow cooker.
If you prefer a richer sauce, thicken the cooking liquid with a cornstarch slurry after removing the turkey breast.
Feel free to experiment with other herbs like sage or marjoram to customize the flavor profile.
