Method
 

Prepare the Turkey
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
  3. Rub the marinade all over the boneless turkey breast, ensuring it's well coated.

  2. Pour the chicken broth and Worcestershire sauce around the turkey in the pan.
  3. Cover the pan with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
  4. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Make the Sauce
  1. While the turkey is cooking, combine the remaining chicken broth and hot sauce in a saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Bring to a simmer and let it reduce slightly for about 10 minutes.
Rest and Serve
  1. Once cooked, remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
