Turkey breast n a bag?

[Anonymous]

Hosting a smaller gathering this Thanksgiving and planning to downsize to a turkey breast, which I have never done before, rather than a whole bird. Also read last weeks WP story about using a bag and thought I would try it. I bought a parchment cooking bag, as that’s what the store had. Any tips or advice? Presume I can prep a breast much as I would a whole turkey, at least on the outside, and follow the WP suggestions on aromatics in the bag.
Welcome advice.

IDK about cooking in a bag. I'd be afraid of it steaming and ruining the meat and also leaching any chemicals into the food. When I make breast only, this recipe never fails me..

Thanks! I am a huge BC fan; didn’t realize she had a recipe for just the breast. Will of course go with her preparation. Happy Thanksgiving!
