Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Preheat the oven to 450Β°F (230Β°C). |
| 2 | Place the turkey breast, skin side up, in a 13 x 9 baking pan. |
| 3 | Sprinkle the thyme and rosemary over the turkey. |
| 4 | Roast the turkey, uncovered, for about 25 minutes, until it starts to brown. |
| 5 | Remove the turkey from the oven and drain off any excess fats and juices. |
| 6 | Reduce the oven temperature to 350Β°F (175Β°C). |
| 7 | Arrange the onion, green pepper, carrots, sweet potato, and pineapple chunks around the turkey in the baking pan. |
| 8 | In a separate bowl, mix together the reserved pineapple juice, brown sugar, ketchup, and red wine to create the sauce. |
| 9 | Pour the sauce over and around the turkey and the fruit and vegetables in the pan. |
| 10 | Cover the pan loosely with foil to prevent excessive browning. |
| 11 | Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 1 hour, basting occasionally with the pan juices. |
| 12 | After 1 hour, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 20 to 30 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened, and the turkey is cooked through. |
| 13 | Once done, remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. |
