Apple & Herb Roasted Turkey
From: Kimberly Jackson @ www.tasteofhome.com/
My daughter loves to help me make this moist, herb roasted turkey. Her job is to hand Mommy the ingredients—if she doesn't eat them first!
Prep: 20 min.
Bake: 3 hours + standing
Yield: 14 Servings
Ingredients
1/4 cup minced fresh sage
1/4 cup minced fresh rosemary
1 turkey (14 pounds) Thawed
1 medium apple, quartered
1 medium onion, halved
1 celery rib, halved
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup apple jelly, warmed
Directions
Combine sage and rosemary.
With fingers, carefully loosen skin from the turkey breast; rub herbs under the skin.
Secure skin to underside of breast with toothpicks.
Place breast side up on a rack in a roasting pan.
Stuff turkey with apple, onion and celery.
Brush with butter.
Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 3 to 3-1/2 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 180°, basting occasionally with pan drippings.
(Cover loosely with foil if turkey browns too quickly.)
Brush with apple jelly.
Cover and let stand for 15 minutes before removing toothpicks and carving.
