Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Place the turkey breast in a roasting pan.

Whisk together the lime juice and zest, mustard, pecans, and black pepper.

Pack the mixture on the top of the breast to create a crust, and roast until the turkey is heated through and the pecans are lightly browned.

Check after 20 minutes. If the nuts don't brown well, put the breast under a low broiler for a few minutes more.
