Squeeze oranges and lemons to each yield 1/2 C juice.
Place in bowl or plastic food storage bag with next five ingredients. Place turkey breast in marinade; turn to coat. Cover and chill at least 2 hrs or overnight, turning occasionally. Heat oven to 450 F. Remove turkey to rack set in roasting pan; reserve marinade. Roast turkey 20 min; reduce oven temp to 350F.
