50 Farmhouse Thanksgiving Recipes
Ingredients:
– 1 whole turkey, 12-14 pounds
– 1 large onion, diced
– 4 cloves of garlic, minced
– 2 carrots, chopped
– 2 celery stalks, diced
– 1 cup chicken broth
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
– 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
– Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
2. Rinse the turkey under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Season the cavity with salt and pepper.
3. In a large roasting pan, scatter the diced onion, garlic, carrots, and celery on the bottom.
4. Place the turkey on top of the vegetables in the roasting pan.
5. In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter with the chopped rosemary and thyme. Brush the herb butter all over the turkey, ensuring it’s well coated.
6. Pour the chicken broth into the bottom of the roasting pan.
7. Cover the turkey loosely with aluminum foil and transfer it to the preheated oven.
8. Roast the turkey for about 3 to 4 hours, basting every 30 minutes with the pan juices. Remove the foil during the last hour of cooking to allow the skin to brown.
9. The turkey is done when a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165°F (74°C).
10. Once cooked, transfer the turkey to a cutting board and let it rest for at least 20 minutes before carving.
11. Strain the pan drippings to make gravy or use them to flavor your favorite sides.
