Thanksgiving Turkey Recipe
By DK | November 20, 2009 |
With Thanksgiving right around the corner, I thought I would share one of my favorite recipes for a Thanksgiving Day turkey.
Ingredients:
1 whole turkey
1 large lemon, cut into halves
salt and pepper to taste
butter or olive oil, whichever you prefer
Preparation:
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Rub butter or oil over the skin of the turkey until it is completely coated.
3. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and any other seasonings you prefer.
4. Take a knife and gently separate the skin from the breast meat;
5. Slide lemon halves under the skin with the peel side up, one on each side. This way the juice from the lemon will release into the breasts.
6. Cover and bake for 30-45 minutes.
7. Remove cover and continue to roast until juices run clear, basting every 15-20 minutes.
If you’ve followed these steps correctly, your turkey should look like the one in the picture below.
Bon Appetit!

Nice breasts!
Awesome!roflmao!
LMAO, now if you made a aluminum foil bikini
to go over the lemons while it was cooking,,,
Got me nice
Looks good – but if you’re not brining your turkey you’re not doing it right!
Brine as in saline implants? I guess that would give the breasts a more natural feel, not as firm as the lemon?
