Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds turkey breast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, thyme, sea salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Place the turkey breast in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over it. Ensure the turkey is evenly coated.
Cover the dish or seal the bag, and let the turkey marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, approximately 375°F (190°C).
Remove the turkey from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Place the turkey breast on the grill and cook for about 10 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the turkey from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve the grilled turkey warm with your choice of Whole30-approved side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
