🦃 TURKEY RECPIE 🦃
Ingredients:
- 12-pound whole turkey
- 4 lemons
- 2 sweet onions
- 1 head of garlic
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- Fresh rosemary and lemon thyme for garnish
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C).
- Rinse the turkey inside and out, then pat it dry with paper towels.
- Cut two lemons into halves and slice the sweet onions and garlic.
- Stuff the turkey cavity with the halved lemons, sliced onions, and garlic. Place extra onion and garlic in the pan.
- In a bowl, mix the softened butter with minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper.
- Rub the turkey with the prepared butter mixture, covering both the outside and under the skin.
- Place the turkey on a rack in a roasting pan, breast side up.
- Squeeze the juice from the remaining lemons over the turkey and place the lemon halves in the pan.
- Decorate the turkey with fresh rosemary and lemon thyme.
- Roast the turkey, basting occasionally with pan juices, until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reaches 165°F (74°C). This typically takes about 3 to 4 hours, depending on your oven and the size of the turkey.
- Once done, let the turkey rest for at least 20 minutes before carving.
- Garnish with additional fresh herbs and lemon slices before serving.
