This turkey breast marinade recipe came from my mother. These always turn out juicy and tender no matter how long my husband leaves them on the grill. It's easy to prepare but always best when marinated for at least 4 hours.

Ingredients

  • garlic, peeled and: 2 clove (minced)
  • fresh basil: 1 Tbsp (finely chopped)
  • ground black pepper: 0.5 tsp
  • boneless turkey breast halves: 2 piece (3 pound)
  • whole cloves: 6 piece
  • vegetable oil: 0.25 cup
  • soy sauce: 0.25 cup
  • lemon juice: 2 Tbsp
  • brown sugar: 1 Tbsp

  4. Discard marinade and place turkey on the preheated grill. Close the lid and cook until turkey is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes on each side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
