I am 100% sold on making a bone-in turkey breast for Friendsgiving – great for smaller gatherings, as it easily serves 6-8 people, especially when you have delicious sides to enjoy too.

Paired with the brightness of the cilantro and lime, plus rich prunes, the balance of sweet and spicy is just perfect. Better than I even imagined they would be.
