Oven-Roasted Turkey

Instructions

1. 1
   Preheat the oven to 180°C.
2. 2
   Clean the turkey and dry the skin completely with paper towels to ensure it browns well.
3. 3
   Mix the butter with the herbs and rub it generously both under the breast skin and on the outside.
4. 4
   Fill the cavity with the onion and apples to maintain internal moisture.
5. 5
   Place the turkey in a deep aluminum foil roasting pan to catch the drippings.
6. 6
   Roast for approximately 30 to 40 minutes per kilo, basting the turkey with its own juices every hour.
7. 7
   If the wing tips or legs brown too quickly, cover them with aluminum foil.
8. 8
   Remove from the oven when the internal temperature reaches 74°C and let it rest for 20 minutes before carving.
