🔗 Recipe adapted from AllRecipes
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.
