ingredients

6 pounds bone-in turkey breast
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
6 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, divided
1/4 cup drained capers
cooked wild rice, to serve

MARINADE

1 cup parsley
5 cloves garlic
1 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1 cup vegetable oil
4 teaspoons crushed dried rosemary
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
freshly ground black pepper, to taste

directions

For Marinade: Process parsley and garlic in food processor until chopped. Add lemon juice, oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Process constantly for 3 minutes.

For Turkey: Rinse turkey and pat dry. Combine with Marinade in plastic food storage bag; mix to coat well. Marinate in refrigerator overnight.

Let stand until room temperature. Drain turkey, reserving Marinade. Place turkey in roasting pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Roast at 400 degrees F for 30 minutes.

Reserve 2/3 cup of the Marinade (for caper sauce). Roast turkey for 1 hour longer, basting with remaining marinade. Cool turkey while making caper sauce.

For Caper Sauce: Bring reserved 2/3 cup Marinade to a boil in saucepan, then remove from heat. Whisk in 2 tablespoons butter. Cook over low heat for several minutes, whisking in remaining butter 1 tablespoon at a time. Stir in capers.

Cut turkey into thin slices. Serve over wild rice with caper sauce.
