Thanksgiving Roast Stuffed Turkey Recipe<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n

I made this roasted stuffed turkey<\/strong> for New Year’s Eve, but it’s an ideal recipe for Christmas Eve<\/strong> or Thanksgiving<\/strong> in the States. Turkey is easy to make, and you don’t have to spend hours behind the stove.<\/p>\n

When you’re entertaining a lot of people, roast turkey is a great idea for a festive meal.  I usually prepare either or a leg of lamb for large parties which everyone loves, or a roast capon. I also like to prepare the most delicious ever Moroccan-style roast chicken<\/strong><\/a> with oven-roasted almonds<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Oven-stuffed turkey<\/strong> is a simple, convivial dish that’s perfect for family Sundays, when you have more than 10 guests.<\/p>\n

How to choose a turkey<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

As for the choice of poultry, capon or chicken, you need to choose a good quality AOC, Label Rouge or organic turkey, certified to have been raised in the open air and fed on good cereals. The turkey meat will be tasty and the difference will be remarkable.<\/p>\n

If you’re using a frozen turkey, be sure to defrost it in the refrigerator before use. To cook the turkey properly, it must be at room temperature before putting it in the oven. The flesh tenderness will be perfect .<\/p>\n

How long will take to oven-roast a turkey ?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

I recommend cooking at low or medium temperature. The turkey will cook slowly and evenly. The flesh is cooked through and remains tender. Baking at 150\u00b0C (300\u00b0F) is perfect. It will take approximately 30 minutes to cook 1\/2 kg (17.6 oz) of turkey<\/p>\n

For a 3.5 kg (about 7.7 lbs) turkey, plan for 3.5 hours of cooking time. But depending on your oven, you can check for doneness by poking a skewer into the hollow of the thigh, between the thigh and the breast. The juice that comes out must be clear.<\/p>\n

No need to preheat the oven.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can use a cooking thermometer. Insert the probe into the thigh at the joint, without touching the bone. The temperature should be 82\u00b0C (180\u00b0F) for a well-cooked turkey.<\/p>\n

Baste the turkey with its juices every 20 minutes. Do not let the juice dry out in the dish, add a glass of water as soon as you see that the sauce has diminished.<\/p>\n

What to serve with roast turkey?<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

I stuffed it with chestnuts, minced offal, sausage meat and minced meat, and served it with chestnuts. It’s one of the most popular accompaniments to roast turkey recipes.<\/p>\n

We like it unstuffed and served with saut\u00e9ed vegetables. You can also serve it with mashed potatoes or smashed potatoes. The oven-roasted butternut<\/strong><\/a> is an excellent accompaniment to turkey or A saut\u00e9 of baby potatoes..<\/strong><\/p>\n
