Using your Slow Cooker also makes the whole process very simple and easy. Simply place your seasoned Turkey Breast in your Slow Cooker with a few other ingredients, and let it do all the work for you. You will be amazed with the results. Let me show you how easy it is.

Add the onion, lemon, and sprigs of fresh rosemary and thyme to the bottom of the slow cooker. Place the turkey breast on top. Cook on High for 3-4 hours, or Low for 6-8 hours. Check internal temperature and remove once it has reached 160-165 degrees.

When done transfer the turkey breast to a cutting board. Loosely tent the turkey with foil and let it rest 15-20 minutes. Preheat your broiler to high. Place the baking sheet the oven & broil for 3-5 minutes or until the skin is crisp to your liking. When the turkey is done, let it stand for 15 to 20 minutes before carving. Serve and enjoy!
