Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2.5 lb Turkey breast boneless, skin-on
  • 4 tbsp Butter softened
  • 2 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Black pepper freshly ground
  • 1 tbsp Fresh rosemary chopped
  • 1 tbsp Fresh thyme chopped
  • 1 tsp Paprika smoked or sweet

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, garlic powder, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, and paprika until combined.
  • Pat the turkey breast dry with paper towels. Carefully loosen the skin and spread half of the herb butter mixture underneath. Spread the remaining butter on top of the skin.
  • Place the turkey breast in the air fryer basket, skin side up. Cook for 30-45 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer registers 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the meat.
  • Let the turkey rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For an extra crisp skin, increase the temperature to 400°F (200°C) for the last 5 minutes of cooking.
