Char Siu‑Marinated Turkey Breast

Ingredients

• 1.5 lb Turkey breast, skinless
• 1/4 cup Low-sodium soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Erythritol (or other zero-calorie sweetener)
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
• 1 teaspoon Chinese five‑spice powder
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 1/4 cup Water

Instructions

1. 1

   In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, erythritol, olive oil, garlic, ginger, five‑spice powder, apple cider vinegar, and water to form the Char Siu marinade.

2. 2

   Place the turkey breast in a resealable bag or shallow dish, pour the marinade over it, ensuring the meat is fully coated. Refrigerate and marinate for at least 20 minutes (or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor).

3. 3

   Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Remove the turkey from the marinade, letting excess drip off, and place it on a rack in a roasting pan. Reserve the remaining marinade for basting.

4. 4

   Roast the turkey breast for 90 minutes, basting with the reserved marinade every 30 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

5. 5

   Let the turkey rest for 10 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain. Serve warm or cold as desired.
