Pat the turkey breast dry with paper towels. Rub or brush olive oil or melted butter all over the turkey, including under the skin, if possible.
In a small bowl, mix together the salt, pepper, garlic and onion powders, paprika, and dried thyme or rosemary; rub mixture evenly over the turkey breast.
Pour the broth in a 6 qt. slow cooker; place the turkey breast inside, breast-side up.
Cover. Cook on LOW for 5-6 hours, or until the internal temperature of the turkey reaches 165°F. The cooking time will vary on the size of the turkey and the slow cooker.
For a golden, crispy skin, transfer the turkey breast to a baking sheet; broil in the oven for 3-5 minutes until the skin is crisp and browned.
Allow the turkey to rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
Serve.
