Rinse turkey breast, pat dry, rub with salt and pepper and sear in 1 tablespoon oil. Reduce heat and finish cooking the meat, about 10 minutes, turning once.

Add the reserved meat juices. Puree the soup and season with sugar and salt and pepper to taste. To serve, ladle the soup into bowls, place turkey slices on top and sprinkle with parsley.
