Holiday Roasted Turkey
- 10- to 12- lb. fresh or frozen thawed whole turkey

- 2 Tbsp. lemon juice
- 2 tsp. dried rosemary leaves
- 1-1/2 tsp. salt

Preheat oven to 425°. Remove giblets from turkey cavity and rinse turkey inside and out; pat dry with paper towels.
In small microwave-safe bowl, microwave remaining ingredients at HIGH 10 seconds or until Spread is melted; stir. Starting at cavity opening, gently loosen skin on turkey and evenly spread 1/2 of the mixture under skin, then spread remaining over outside of turkey.

Absolutely wonderful! So savoury as well!
the lemon and rosemary give the bird a great taste I really enjoyed the seasoning combo in this.
yes the seasoning is perfect! beautiful!
very delightfull meal
I had never made a turkey dinner before this recipe saved my life everyone seemed to like it.
putting the mixture under the skin keeps it moist I was really impressed if you just use butter on the outside normally your bird will dry out a bit.
I really enjoyed this recipe, it turned out great and was easy to follow
