Ingredients
- 1 Harris Teeter Frozen Turkey (10 lbs)
- 1 ½ tbsp Olive Oil
- ½ tsp Paprika
- ½ tsp Dried Rosemary
- ½ tsp Dried Thyme
- ⅓ tsp Cayenne Pepper
- Salt and Pepper to Taste
Instructions
- Thaw your frozen turkey according to the instructions given in the article above.
- Preheat the oven to 325 °F, i.e., 163 °C, for about 20-30 minutes before placing the turkey inside.
- In the meantime, mix the seasonings with the olive oil and rub it into the turkey. Let the turkey marinate like this for the rest of the preheating time.
- Put the turkey on a parchment-paper-covered baking tray with the breast side up and let it roast. The usual roasting time is 15 minutes per pound. The entire roasting time would be between 150 and 225 minutes.
- Don't disturb the turkey for the first hour and a half, and don't open the oven hatch.
- Start basting in the last hour. Baste the turkey three times in 20-minute intervals.
- Near the end of the cooking process, insert a meat thermometer into the middle of one of the thickest parts of the breast or thigh. A fully cooked turkey should reach at least 165 °F (75 °C).
- When your turkey reaches this temperature or when the cooking time is up, take your turkey out of the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes.
- That's it! Now you can serve your turkey with some of the side dish recommendations from the article. Enjoy!
