Foil-Roasted Turkey With Rosemary Butter


This method is wonderful when you have a lot of other dishes to prepare. It is almost impossible to burn the turkey within its foil “blanket.” Ladle out excess drippings and save for gravy.

INGREDIENTS

Foil-Roasted Turkey With Rosemary Butter

DIRECTIONS

  • Preheat oven to 325° F.
  • Rinse turkey with water and pat dry. Remove giblet packet from cavity.
  • Stuff cavity with onion quarters (and extra rosemary sprigs if desired).
  • Place sheet of aluminum foil into roasting pan, leaving enough on each side to wrap the turkey.
  • Blend butter, rosemary and garlic. Using your fingers, spread mixture on the entire surface of the turkey. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
  • Wrap turkey loosely with foil (not airtight) and place in oven.
  • Roast for 3-4 hours. Unwrap foil for the last 30-45 minutes of cooking time to crisp the skin.
  • Remove turkey; discard onion and rosemary. Transfer turkey to carving plate and let rest a few minutes before slicing.
