Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Pat the turkey dry. Mix the kosher salt with the dry brine ingredients, then rub it over the turkey, under the skin and inside the cavity.
  2. Refrigerate the turkey in a large plastic bag for 24 to 36 hours.
  3. Mix the softened butter with the dried thyme, dried parsley, salt-free garlic seasoning and minced garlic. Rub it all over the turkey, including under the skin.
  4. Fill the cavity with the fresh herbs, citrus wedges, onion and garlic.
  5. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and roast the turkey for 30 minutes.
  6. Add 1 cup of water to the pan, reduce the oven to 350°F (175°C), and cover the turkey with foil or a lid. Keep cooking for 3 to 4 hours in total, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (76°C).
  7. For the last 30 minutes, uncover the turkey so the skin turns golden brown.
  8. Rest the turkey for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
