The Perfect Turkey
Ingredients:
1 whole turkey (12-14lbs)
1 cup unsalted butter
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme
1 lemon, quartered
1 orange, quartered
1 onion, quartered
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Rinse the turkey and pat it dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix together the butter, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme.
Carefully loosen the skin of the turkey by gently sliding your fingers between the skin and the meat, being careful not to tear the skin. Using your hands, spread the butter mixture evenly under the skin, covering as much of the turkey as possible. This will help keep the turkey moist and add a burst of flavor.
Next, stuff the cavity of the turkey with the lemon, orange, and onion. Season the outside of the turkey with salt and pepper. Place the turkey in a roasting pan and cover with foil.
Roast the turkey for 2 ½ to 3 hours, removing the foil for the last 45 minutes to allow the skin to crisp up. To ensure the turkey is fully cooked, use a meat thermometer to check the thickest part of the thigh. It should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Serving Suggestions:
Once the turkey is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 20 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and ensure a tender and juicy turkey. For an extra touch of flavor, drizzle the turkey with the pan juices before serving. Pair your turkey with some classic Thanksgiving sides like mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, and cranberry sauce for a complete and delicious meal.
With this Gordon Ramsay-inspired Thanksgiving recipe, you'll be sure to impress your guests and create a holiday feast to remember. Happy cooking!
