Instructions
Rinse turkey breasts with cold water, and pat dry.
Cut celery, carrots, and onions into quarters.
Place half of vegetables and a thyme sprig into each turkey cavity; close cavities, and tie with string.
Place breasts, cavity side down, in a roasting pan; brush with butter.
Sprinkle with fines herbes, salt, and pepper.
Bake at 400 for 30 minutes. Reduce heat to 350, and bake 2 hours and 10 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted into thickest portion registers 170, basting occasionally with pan drippings. Shield with aluminum foil after 1 1/2 hours to prevent excessive browning.
Let turkey stand 15 to 25 minutes before slicing.
