Preparation
  1. Remove the boneless turkey from its mesh casing and lay it flat, butterflied on a plate.

  3. Combine parsley, rosemary, thyme, oregano, onion powder, garlic powder, lemon pepper seasoning, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
  4. Drizzle olive oil over the turkey and rub it in thoroughly.
  5. Divide the seasoning mix into two halves and rub each portion evenly over both sides of the turkey breast.
Cooking
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 365°F (180°C) for about 5 minutes.
  2. Spray or brush the air fryer basket with a light coating of cooking oil.
  3. Carefully place the seasoned turkey skin side up into the air fryer basket.
  4. Cook for 40-50 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Resting
  1. Remove the turkey from the air fryer and let it rest, covered loosely with aluminum foil, for 10-20 minutes.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider marinating the turkey overnight. For crispier skin, increase the temperature during the last few cooking minutes.
