Ingredients
– 1 whole turkey (about 4-5 kg)
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 tablespoon salt
– 1 tablespoon black pepper
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 lemon, sliced
– Fresh herbs (such as rosemary and thyme)
– 250 ml chicken broth
– Optional: vegetables for roasting (carrots, onions, potatoes)
Method
1. Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F). Make sure a rack is in the lower part of the oven.
2. Prepare the turkey by removing the backbone. Use kitchen scissors to cut along both sides of the backbone and take it out.
3. Flip the turkey over and press down firmly on the breastbone to flatten it. This gives a nice shape for cooking.
4. Rub the turkey all over with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Place lemon slices and herbs on top.
5. Place the turkey on a roasting tray with chicken broth added. Roast in the oven for about 1.5-2 hours, basting occasionally with the juices from the tray. Check for doneness, ensuring it reaches 75°C (165°F).
