This air fryer turkey breast is prepared with butter, thyme, rosemary, and sage. It has to be the easiest way to make a turkey dinner, and is done in no time at all.
Making turkey breast in the air fryer is so easy. I love roasted turkey, but we seem to only have it as a holiday meal. I look forward to making the big meal each year, and knowing we will have leftover turkey. Although, I don’t have the hours to roast a turkey, even a small one for dinner.
But with a cooking time under an hour, I feel like we can enjoy turkey breast as a weekly recipe. And this boneless breast, comes out with the most perfect brown skin and tender meat.
