This Slow Cooker Turkey Breast recipe is moist, juicy turkey cooked and seasoned with brown gravy mix, seasoning, paprika, and pepper. Perfect for Thanksgiving or any easy weeknight dinner.
The Best Crock Pot Turkey Breast
This is by far my favorite way to prepare a turkey breast and no need to heat up your oven! This turkey recipe is so quick and easy to make with the slow cooker doing all the cooking for you. The turkey is full of flavorful juices, tender and tastes so good! You will never want to make the turkey the same way again.
Key Ingredients You’ll Need
- Turkey: You will need a boneless turkey breast so that the bones don’t get mixed into the meat.
- Seasonings: You will need a combination of brown gravy mix, ranch seasoning, poultry seasoning, and pepper to flavor your turkey.
How To Slow Cook a Turkey
- Step 1. Open the turkey by removing the package and netting. Place the turkey into the crockpot. Add 1 packet of the brown gravy mix, 1 envelope of ranch seasoning, and the water into a small bowl and combine until fully incorporated. Add the mixture on top of the turkey in the crockpot. In a small bowl, add the paprika, poultry seasoning, and pepper and combine before adding the top of the Turkey. Put the butter onto the turkey.
- Step 2. Seal the slow cooker with a lid and cook for 3-5 hours on low or until the internal temperature in the thickest part of the meat reads 165-170 degrees. Take the turkey out once cooked and allow it to cool slightly for 10 minutes before cutting.
- Step 3. While the turkey cools slightly, add the brown gravy into the crockpot and whisk with the rest of the liquid before serving with the cooked turkey. Enjoy!
What To Serve With Slow Cooker Turkey Breast:
You can serve turkey meat with almost anything. Of course, serving this recipe on Thanksgiving or on Christmas is the most popular option. We love it with mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, green bean stuffing and mashed potato rolls. However, any side dishes or veggies will be fine.
Another way of serving is cutting up the turkey to use for casseroles or soups like our Turkey Tetrazzini or Turkey Corn Chowder.
Storing and Reheating
Place the leftovers in an airtight container for the best storage method. You can store this recipe in the fridge for up to 3 days or you can place the recipe in a freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months. I like to carve my turkey and keep it in the freezer to use for other dinner ideas.
