JUICY MAYO ROASTED TURKEY



Juicy Mayo Roasted Turkey image

Who needs butter? A slather of mayonnaise on your turkey pulls double duty by standing in as a flavorful rub as well as adding moisture and fat to often dry meat. And what's particularly great is that it browns the skin beautifully without the constant basting that most birds need.

Time 3h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

One 10- to 12-pound turkey
1 1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon paprika
4 teaspoons dried parsley
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons dried parsley
2 teaspoon dried thyme
2 teaspoon ground sage
1 teaspoon hot sauce or a pinch of cayenne
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 medium onion, quartered
1 head garlic, halved across the garlic cloves
Several sprigs fresh herbs, such as thyme, parsley, rosemary and sage
2 bay leaves

Steps:

  • Adjust a rack in the lowest position and preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Set a roasting rack in a large roasting pan.
  • Stir together the mayonnaise, paprika, dried parsley, garlic powder, dried thyme, ground sage, hot sauce, 2 tablespoons salt and 2 teaspoons black pepper in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Remove any turkey parts from the neck and breast cavities and reserve for other uses if desired. Dry the bird well with paper towels, inside and out. Rub the mayonnaise mixture all over the turkey, including the cavity, trying to make it as smooth as possible, especially on the breast so it browns evenly. Stuff the cavity with the onion, garlic, herb sprigs and bay leaves.
  • Set the bird breast-side up on the prepared roasting rack. Tent the bird with foil.
  • Roast the turkey for 2 hours. Remove the foil and increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Add a cup of water to the bottom of the pan so that the drippings don't burn and continue to roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees F in the thigh, 30 to 45 minutes. You can strain the pan drippings and serve them on the side or reserve and blend them into your gravy for extra flavor.
  • Remove the turkey from the oven and let rest about 20 minutes then carve and serve.

MOIST AND TENDER TURKEY (OR TURKEY BREAST)



Moist and Tender Turkey (Or Turkey Breast) image

PLEASE READ this regarding TEMP & TIME! There is no "right" temperature. If you roast it at 250°F it will just take longer to cook than at 325°F. (Just like picking High or Low on a crock-pot) I cannot tell you exactly how long it will take. It depends on what type of oven you have & how warm/cold your turkey is when you put it in the oven. You HAVE to use an instant read thermometer to know when it is cooked. (I roast my 18-20 lbs. fresh turkey at 250°F. It took about 4 hours to reach the correct temperature in my old convection oven. It took 5 hours in my new one.) Because of the mayo, the skin is crisp and flavorful and the meat is tender, moist and delicious. If you don't use the butter & broth, you will not have enough pan drippings to make gravy. I've also added 1/2 cup of beer or wine to the mixture before & it was also spectacular. With slow roasting it, the meat stays so juicy I've actually had it squirt out when I insert the thermometer! I've never had a better turkey.

Time 2h10m

Yield 1 turkey, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (5 -20 lb) fresh or frozen turkey (thawed) or 1 (5 -20 lb) turkey breast (thawed)
1/4 cup butter, melted
12 ounces chicken broth (can use part beer or white wine)
1 -2 tablespoon mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Place turkey or turkey breast in a roasting pan.
  • (I use a disposable roasting pan) Combine melted butter and chicken broth.
  • Pour over turkey.
  • Rub mayonnaise all over turkey's exterior.
  • Salt and pepper lightly if desired.
  • Roast at 300°-325°F until internal temperature reaches 170°F on an instant read thermometer. (I raise the temperature to 350° for the last approximate 30-45 minutes to crisp skin).
  • (I roast my 18-20 lbs. fresh turkey at 250°F in a convection oven. It takes about 4 hours to reach the correct temperature.).
  • Remove from oven and let sit for about 30 minutes before slicing.
  • Note: because the butter and broth are for making gravy, if you need to make a lot of gravy, double the amount of both.
  • To make gravy: pour pan drippings into a saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add 1 Tbls. cornstarch per cup of broth/drippings to 1/4 cup cold water. (You'll usually need 2-3 Tbls) Mix well to dissolve. Stir cornstarch mixture into broth and stir until thickened. Add salt and pepper to taste. If too thin, dissolve more cornstarch in water and add until desired thickness. If too thick, add water or more broth to thin.
