SIMPLE ROAST TURKEY



Simple Roast Turkey image

For all the attention we lavish on Thanksgiving turkeys, the truth is more work does not necessarily yield a better bird. That's right: You can skip brining, stuffing, trussing and basting. Instead of a messy wet brine, use a dry rub (well, technically a dry brine) - a salt and pepper massage that locks in moisture and seasons the flesh. No stuffing or trussing allows the bird to cook more quickly, with the white and dark meat finishing closer to the same time. And if you oil but don't baste your turkey, you'll get crisp skin without constantly opening the oven.

Time 3h30m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 turkey (10 to 12 pounds)
Coarse kosher salt
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 lemon, zested and quartered
1 bunch fresh thyme or rosemary
1 bunch fresh sage
12 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
1 bottle hard apple cider (12 ounces)
Dry white wine, as needed
2 onions, peeled and quartered
3 bay leaves
Olive oil or melted butter, as needed

Steps:

  • Remove any giblets from the cavity and reserve for stock or gravy. Pat turkey and turkey neck dry with paper towel; rub turkey all over with 1/2 teaspoon salt per pound of turkey, the pepper and the lemon zest, including the neck. Transfer to a 2-gallon (or larger) resealable plastic bag. Tuck herbs and 6 garlic cloves inside bag. Seal and refrigerate on a small rimmed baking sheet (or wrapped in another bag) for at least 1 day and up to 3 days, turning the bird over every day (or after 12 hours if brining for only 1 day).
  • Remove turkey from bag and pat dry with paper towels. Place turkey, uncovered, back on the baking sheet. Return to the refrigerator for at least 4 hours and up to 12 hours to dry out the skin (this helps crisp it).
  • When you are ready to cook the turkey, remove it from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for one hour.
  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. In the bottom of a large roasting pan, add the cider and enough wine to fill the pan to a 1/4-inch depth. Add half the onions, the remaining 6 garlic cloves and the bay leaves. Stuff the remaining onion quarters and the lemon quarters into the turkey cavity. Brush the turkey skin generously with oil or melted butter.
  • Place turkey, breast side up, on a roasting rack set inside the roasting pan. Transfer pan to the oven and roast 30 minutes. Cover breast with aluminum foil. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees and continue roasting until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of a thigh reaches a temperature of 165 degrees, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours more. Transfer turkey to a cutting board to rest for 30 minutes before carving.

ROASTED TURKEY STOCK



Roasted Turkey Stock image

When you're making a turkey, making stock with the bones is the logical next step. This recipe, from the Los Angeles chef Suzanne Goin, has the usual aromatics - carrots, celery, onions - plus a concentrated shot of white wine and a dried chile, which add a welcome breath of freshness. (Sometimes poultry stock can taste flat.) Roasting the bones and the vegetables in the same pan streamlines the process and adds depth of flavor. You can use this stock in virtually any recipe that calls for chicken stock (except for chicken soup).

Provided by Julia Moskin

Categories     soups and stews

Time 1h

Yield About 3 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 leftover carcass from a 10- to 15-pound roasted turkey, preferably including neck, wing and leg bones
4 or 5 onions, quartered (no need to peel; just rub off any papery skins)
2 large or 3 small carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
4 large or 5 small celery ribs, cut into chunks
2 cups white wine
2 large or 3 small garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
1 whole arbol (or another small dried red) chile
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Using a sturdy knife or your hands, cut or tear turkey carcass into large pieces. Arrange in a single layer in a roasting pan and roast until brown and sizzling, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and transfer pieces to a stockpot.
  • Add onions, carrots and celery to the empty roasting pan and place over medium heat. Sauté briefly, just to loosen the crusty turkey bits from bottom of pan.
  • Return pan to oven and cook until vegetables are browned around the edges, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Remove pan from oven and place it over medium heat. Add white wine and cook, stirring, until wine is reduced to a syrup, about 3 minutes.
  • Add wine-vegetable mixture to stockpot. Add garlic, thyme, bay leaves, black peppercorns and chile. Add 6 quarts water and place over medium-high heat just until mixture comes to a boil.
  • Immediately reduce heat to low, skim any foam floating on top and simmer, skimming as needed, for 3 hours. Add 1 teaspoon salt and taste. If stock tastes watery, keep simmering until stock is flavorful. Taste for salt again and add more if needed.
  • Strain stock through a sieve into a large container or containers. Discard solids. Let stock cool slightly, then refrigerate. Skim off any fat from the top of the stock. Use within 4 days or freeze.

Tips:

  • Thaw the turkey properly: Thaw the turkey in the refrigerator for 4-5 days or in a cold water bath for 30 minutes per pound. Never thaw the turkey at room temperature, as this can cause bacteria to grow.
  • Choose the right-sized turkey: A good rule of thumb is to allow 1 pound of turkey per person. If you're not sure how big of a turkey to get, you can always ask your butcher or use an online turkey calculator.
  • Prepare the turkey: Remove the giblets and neck from the turkey cavity. Rinse the turkey inside and out with cold water and pat it dry with paper towels.
  • Season the turkey: Season the turkey inside and out with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. You can also add a compound butter or rub to the skin of the turkey to help it stay moist and flavorful.
  • Roast the turkey: Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the turkey breast-side up on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Add some water or broth to the bottom of the pan to help keep the turkey moist. Roast the turkey for 3-4 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the turkey rest: Once the turkey is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before carving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the turkey, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Roasting a turkey is a classic holiday tradition, and with a little planning and preparation, it can be a delicious and stress-free experience. By following these tips, you can ensure that your turkey turns out perfectly cooked and juicy. So gather your friends and family, set the table, and enjoy a delicious and memorable holiday meal.
