Preparation:

-Preheat the oven to 375°, and line a baking sheet with foil.

-Place the turkey breasts bone-side down onto the baking sheets, and drizzle with a couple of tablespoons of the oil; sprinkle a couple of good pinches of salt and black pepper over each of the turkey breasts, along with the herbs de Provence and the paprika divided equally among each.

-Insert a digital thermometer into the thickest part of one of the breasts.

-Next, pour half of the Orange-Honey Glaze into two separate small bowls, reserving one half for after the turkey is sliced, and using the other half to brush over the turkey as it roasts.

-Place the turkey breasts into the oven to roast, and after 30 minutes, brush them liberally with the glaze.

-Continue to roast for another 10 minutes, and then brush on more of the glaze.

-Continue to roast for another 10 minutes, and brush once more with the glaze; roast for about another 10 minutes, and remove the breasts from the oven once the internal temperature reaches 165°.

-Allow the turkey breasts to rest for about 10 minutes before slicing the meat; then once sliced, drizzle just a little of the reserved glaze over the slices, and sprinkle over the fresh rosemary and thyme before serving.
