~ Cooking Thanksgiving Turkey the Rocco's Way ~
First, remove the neck and the liver, discarding the liver. Place the Turkey and neck into a large roasting pan. Rub the Turkey down with a cube of room-thawed butter. Season the Turkey generously with ground black pepper, fresh chopped parsley, and basil.
Cut ˝ (one half) bunch of celery and 3 (three) unpeeled carrots into quarters and place in the roasting pan AROUND the Turkey. Add canned chicken broth to pan up to within an inch from the top of the roasting pan, being careful not to hit the Turkey. Lift the Turkey up, allowing the broth to cover the bottom of the pan, and then place the Turkey back into the pan.
Cover the Turkey and roasting pan in heavy duty aluminum foil, and place in a 400°F pre-heated oven for approximately 10 (ten) minutes per pound. A 15 lb. Turkey cooks for about 2 1/2 hours.
The cooking time is reduced due to higher temperatures and the trapped steam inside the foil actually steams the turkey in its own juices and produces a moist bird with a light golden, non-crisp skin. Mangia! |
