Cranberry Glazed Turkey Breast
(Serves 10)

1 bone-in turkey breast (5-6 pounds)
1 cup jellied cranberry sauce
1 cup orange marmalade
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

Place turkey breast in a shallow roasting pan (about 2-1/2" deep).

Roast the turkey breast in a preheated 325°F oven approximately 1-3/4 to 2 hours or until meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the breast reaches 170°F.

In a small saucepan, over medium heat, combine cranberry sauce, marmalade, mustard, lemon juice and cloves. Cook 4 to 5 minutes or until sauce is smooth. Brush 2 to 3 tablespoons sauce over the turkey breast during the last 20 minutes of roasting.

Remove turkey breast from the oven, place turkey on a serving platter and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve remaining sauce with turkey slices.
