Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Mix all of the dry rub ingredients in a small bowl.
- Put the turkey on a rack in a roasting pan.
- Generously season the turkey cavity with salt and pepper, to taste. Brush the turkey with olive oil, and rub it with the seasoning mixture. Tie the legs together loosely to hold their shape, and tuck the wing tips under.
- Roast the turkey until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of thigh registers 165 to 170 degrees F, about 3 hours.
- Transfer the turkey to a platter. Tent it very loosely with foil, and let it rest for at least 30 minutes (the internal temperature will rise 5 to 10 degrees). Reserve the juices in the pan.
- Gravy: Scrape the juices and browned bits from the roasting pan into a large glass measuring cup. Spoon off the fat, reserving 2 tablespoons. If necessary, add enough stock to the juices to measure 1 2/3 cups.
- Heat the reserved 2 tablespoons fat in a heavy, large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, and shallots, and saute for 2 minutes. Add the flour and whisk until golden, about 4 minutes. Add the degreased pan juices, and the 2 cups stock. Bring to a boil, whisking until smooth. Reduce the heat and simmer until the gravy is reduced to the desired consistency, about 4 minutes. Whisk in the lemon juice, and the sour cream. Season the gravy with salt and pepper, to taste. Pour the gravy into a serving bowl. Carve the turkey and arrange it on a serving platter.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Mix 1/4 cup butter, garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, garlic and herb seasoning, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Place turkey breast with skin side up into a roasting pan.

- Roast in the preheated oven for 1 hour; baste turkey breast with remaining butter mixture. Return to oven and roast until the juices run clear and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast, not touching bone, reads 165 degrees F (65 degrees C), about 30 more minutes. Let turkey breast rest 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

SWEET AND SPICY TURKEY RUB
This dry rub recipe is an adaptation of a cajun rub recipe I came across. It reduces the salt and replaces it with brown sugar and a couple more savory spices. It is good for a 12- to 16-pound turkey and should also work well with chicken and pork.

Tips:
- Brining the turkey breast: Brining the turkey breast in a mixture of salt, water, and spices helps to enhance its flavor and keep it moist during roasting. You can brine the turkey breast for up to 24 hours, but 12 hours is usually sufficient.
- Using a dry rub: A dry rub is a mixture of spices and herbs that is applied to the turkey breast before roasting. The dry rub helps to create a flavorful crust on the turkey and keeps it from drying out. Be sure to apply the dry rub evenly to the turkey breast.
- Roasting the turkey breast: Roast the turkey breast at a high temperature (425°F) for a short period of time (30-45 minutes) to create a crispy skin. Then, reduce the temperature to 350°F and continue roasting until the turkey breast reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Letting the turkey breast rest: After roasting, let the turkey breast rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the turkey breast, resulting in a more tender and flavorful meat.
Conclusion:
Roasted turkey breast with zesty dry rub is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for a variety of occasions. Whether you're hosting a Thanksgiving dinner or simply looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, this recipe is sure to please. With its flavorful dry rub and crispy skin, this roasted turkey breast is a surefire hit. So, next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make turkey dish, be sure to give this recipe a try.
