Happy holidays! Here is quick, simple turkey breast recipe. It came out tender, with a nice, golden crust.

A 4-5 pound breast may fit in a 5 quart (or larger) air fryer — make sure the meat sits well into the basket, to ensure it cooks properly. While you’re cooking this turkey, you have time to prep some other side dishes for your holiday gathering! This dish pairs well with the Bacon Wrapped Asparagus and the Apple Walnut Feta Salad.
