Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375° F. Coat a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

  2. Toss the celery, carrots, onion, cabbage, and thyme together and place in the pan. Pour the chicken broth over the vegetables.

  3. Remove the skin from the turkey breast. Place the turkey bone side down on top of the vegetables. Drizzle the turkey and vegetables with the olive oil. Sprinkle them with the all-purpose seasoning and black pepper.

  4. Roast the turkey and vegetables in the oven for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature of the turkey is 165° F.
