Garlic and Herb Brined Turkey

Garlic and Herb Brined Turkey is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is made with a combination of garlic, herbs, and turkey, which creates a mouth-watering taste that is sure to impress your guests.

To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1 turkey breast
- 4 cups water
- 1/2 cup kosher salt
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup garlic cloves
- 1/4 cup fresh herbs (such as rosemary, thyme, and sage)
- 1 tablespoon black peppercorns

To start, combine the water, kosher salt, brown sugar, garlic cloves, fresh herbs, and black peppercorns in a large pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the salt and sugar have dissolved. Remove the pot from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.
Once the brine has cooled, place the turkey breast in a large resealable bag and pour the brine over it. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight.
When you are ready to cook the turkey, preheat your oven to 350°F. Remove the turkey breast from the brine and rinse it thoroughly with cold water. Pat the turkey dry with paper towels and place it in a roasting pan.
Roast the turkey for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let the turkey rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
