Slow Cooking:: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 5-6 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

Broiler Finish:: Once cooked, preheat your oven's broiler. Transfer the turkey breast to a broiler-safe pan or tray. Broil for 3-5 minutes or until the skin crisps up and turns golden brown. Make sure to keep an eye on it to prevent it from burning!

Gravy Preparation:: Pour the juices from the slow cooker into a saucepan, discarding the onions. Bring the liquid to a boil. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water until smooth. Gradually whisk the cornstarch mixture into the boiling liquid. Continue to cook and whisk until the gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
