Directions

Step 1

Thaw turkey according to package instructions. Reserve neck and giblets for stock.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 3

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, prepare marinade by adding olive oil, garlic, ginger, peppercorns and sauté for 1 – 2 minutes until fragrant. Add sea salt, sugar, orange juice and cider and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and cool.

Step 4

Place thawed turkey in a roasting pan with a bottom rack. Pour marinade over turkey and season the outside and cavity of turkey with salt and cracked black pepper. Place turkey in oven and roast for 30 minutes.

Step 5

Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (160°C). Remove turkey from oven and baste with juices from bottom of pan.

Step 6

Cover turkey and pan loosely with foil. Continue roasting (basting every 20 minutes) for another 2 1/2-3 1/2 hours until a meat thermometer in the thickest part of the thigh reads 170°F (77°C) for an unstuffed turkey; 180°F (82°C) for a stuffed turkey; the leg moves easily when twisted and the juices run clear. To brown the turkey, remove foil in the last 1/2 hour of roasting.

Tip

A bread stuffing made with fresh thyme, onions, garlic or a rice stuffing made with orange juice, raisins, onions would be excellent with this turkey.
