Notes
Recipe Tips:
The cooking time is the same for bone-in turkey breast and boneless turkey breast. 7 minutes per pound with a natural pressure release.
If you would like to brown your turkey after cook time is complete, transfer it to a cookie sheet or baking dish. Lightly cover with a tbsp of olive oil and place under your oven's broiler for 5-10 minutes until golden brown.
If I'm cooking a smaller turkey, I like to add whole potatoes (full size, not mini) right to the pot on top of my turkey. Once cooking time is complete, transfer potatoes to a bowl and make mashed potatoes by adding milk and butter to taste then using a hand mixer to combine. Note: This works best with a small turkey at a lower cooking time.
