👨‍🍳 Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Mix 1/4 cup butter, garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, garlic and herb seasoning, salt, and black pepper in a bowl.

Place turkey breast with skin side up into a roasting pan.

Loosen skin with your fingers; brush half the butter mixture over the turkey breast and underneath the skin.

Reserve remaining butter mixture.

Tent turkey breast loosely with aluminum foil.

Roast in the preheated oven for 1 hour; baste turkey breast with remaining butter mixture.

Return to oven and roast until the juices run clear and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast, not touching bone, reads 165 degrees F (65 degrees C), about 30 more minutes.

Let turkey breast rest 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

While turkey is resting, transfer pan drippings to a skillet.

Skim off excess grease, leaving about 1 tablespoon in skillet.

Place skillet over low heat; cook and stir shallot in turkey grease until opaque, about 5 minutes.

Melt 1 tablespoon butter in skillet with shallot and whisk in white wine, scraping any browned bits of food from skillet.

Whisk in chicken stock and flour until smooth.

Bring to a simmer, whisking constantly, until thickened.

For a creamier, lighter gravy, whisk in half-and-half.
