How to Roast a Turkey Perfectly
A brilliant method for roasting a turkey in which the breast is shielded from the oven’s high heat while the bird is basted while cooking. Taking away the foil at the end allows the skin to crisp up. In addition to a plethora of helpful advice for roasting a turkey to perfection, this article also discusses brining and whether or not it is necessary.
But first, here’s everything you need to know before roasting your turkey:
- The size of your turkey. A turkey weighing about 1 1/4 ounces should be purchased for each person.
- Take the time to thaw. If you bought your turkey frozen, give it at least one day in the fridge to defrost completely before cooking.
- Don’t skimp on seasoning. After you’ve dried your turkey thoroughly, you can stuff it with onions, thyme, rosemary, sage, and garlic before seasoning the inside of the turkey’s cavity generously with salt and pepper.
- Give it a hot start. For the first half an hour, we like to cook the turkey at a very high temperature (450 degrees) to get the skin nice and crispy; we then reduce the heat to 350 degrees to ensure the rest of the turkey is cooked through without getting burned.
- The secret to perfectly browned skin? A dry brine and plenty of butter.
- Cooking time. The amount of time needed to cook a turkey depends on a variety of factors, including whether or not it has been stuffed, the size of the bird, and whether or not it has been thawed.
Let it rest. Like with steak, you should let the turkey rest for at least 20 minutes after removing it from the oven.
Cooking Directions:
- Step 1
- Put the oven rack in the lowest third and heat the oven to 450 degrees. Saturate the turkey cavity with salt and pepper and pat dry with paper towels. Pack the cavity with aromatics like onions, thyme, rosemary, sage, and garlic. Avoid burning by tying the legs together with kitchen twine and tucking the wings under the body.
- Step 2
- Rub the turkey with the melted butter and season it with salt and pepper. Arrange the turkey, breast side up, on a roasting rack set inside a large pan. Ladle some chicken broth into the pot. Toss into the oven and cook for 30 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit before turning the heat down to 350.
- Step 3
- Roast for 3–4 hours, basting every 30–45 minutes with the pan juices or until an instant-read thermometer registers 165°F inside the meat or the juices run clear when you cut horizontally between the thighs.
- Step 4
- Rest the turkey for 20 minutes in a tent of aluminum foil after it has been cooked.
