About Turkey, fryer-roasters, breast, meat only, cooked, roasted
Turkey breast is about as lean as poultry gets — even leaner than chicken breast — which is why it's a fixture not just at holiday dinners but in delis, sandwiches and meal-prep all year round. Mild and tender when roasted, it's a blank canvas for seasoning.
Its nutrition is almost all protein: exceptionally high, with very little fat and few calories, plus useful amounts of niacin, vitamin B6, selenium and phosphorus. That makes it a go-to for anyone chasing protein while keeping fat and calories down.
The flip side of being so lean is that it dries out easily, so brining or careful roasting pays off. Sliced, it's one of the leanest sandwich fillings you can choose.
