Equipment

  • Slow Cooker My Cuisinart Slow Cooker / Multi-Cooker is on of my favorite appliances!
  • Serrated Knife This 5" Serrated Utility knife is fantastic for slicing meats.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 lb. boneless turkey breast
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 1 cup apple cider

Turkey breast seasoning:

  • 1 Tablespoons orange zest zest from 1/2 orange
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon allspice

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, combine the turkey breast seasoning: orange zest, paprika, pepper, sage, onion powder and allspice. Stir together. Sprinkle the seasoning evenly over the entire turkey breast. Use your hands to pat the seasoning onto the turkey breast.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil. Sear each side of the turkey breast for about 1 minute per side. (Note: if you have a slow cooker with a browning setting, you can do this directly in the slow cooker.)
  • Place the seared turkey breast in the slow cooker. Add in the chicken stock and apple cider. Cook the turkey breast on low for 4-5 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
  • Once done cooking, transfer the turkey breast to a cutting board and slice. Serve right away or if you're waiting for guests, place the sliced turkey back into the slow cooker, in the liquid on warm setting to keep the sliced turkey juicy and warm.

Notes

Storage: store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
