Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons butter softened
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 3 stalks celery halved
  • 3 carrots quartered
  • 1 large yellow onion sliced into ½" wedges
  • 1 boneless turkey breast with skin about 2 to 2 ½ pounds

Instructions

  • In a small bowl mix softened butter, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and paprika. Spread the mixture evenly over the turkey breast.
  • Pour chicken broth in the bottom of a slow cooker and add the vegetables.
  • Place the turkey breast, skin side up, on top of the vegetables.
  • Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low for 5-6 hours - until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • If desired, place the turkey breast on a foil lined sheet and broil for 3-5 minutes or until skin is browned.
  • Allow to sit for about 10 minutes before cutting.

Notes

  • If you don’t have a meat thermometer at home, buy one for this recipe. There’s no way to simply look at a turkey breast and know if it’s done.
