Bring to a boil; mix well and remove from heat. Brush butter mixture over turkey breast. Roast, uncovered, at 325 degrees for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until thermometer reads 165 degrees, basting with butter mixture every 30 minutes. Remove turkey breast to a platter, cover lightly to keep warm. Let stand for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serves 10 to 12.
