Ingredients
  

  • 2 to 3 pounds boneless turkey breast
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

  2. Place the seasoned turkey breast in the slow cooker. Pour the chicken broth around the turkey.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the turkey is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
