Balsamic Roasted Turkey with Apple

Balsamic Roasted Turkey with Apple

Ingredients:
  • 1 turkey (10-15 pounds)
  • ½ cup Extravagonzo Red Chili or Roasted Garlic Culinary Oil
  • ½ cup Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Celtic sea salt
  • 10 apples, peeled, cored and sliced in half – I like to leave the skins on the apples.
  • 4 sprigs rosemary
Instructions:
  1. Remove the gizzards (save in refrigerator for gravy)
  2. Rinse bird well and pat dry with paper towels; then truss (tie legs together with string)
  3. Place turkey breast side up on a rack in a roasting pan, then put rosemary inside bird
  4. Drizzle and/or brush/baste bird with Extravagonzo Red Chili or Roasted Garlic Culinary Oil and balsamic vinegar, then sprinkle with salt
  5. Wedge apples around roasting pan to prop turkey up evenly –place 2 apple halves in cavity of bird
  6. Place roasting pan with turkey, apples, etc. in oven on lowest rack
  7. Roast at 325°, 15 minutes per pound; a 15 pound turkey requires 3 hours and 45 minutes, brushing/basting a couple times throughout roasting.
  8. If skin begins to brown too soon, cover with foil
  9. To check temperature stick a meat thermometer deep into thigh; at 175° it is safely done
  10. Remove turkey from oven and allow to sit for 20 to 30 minutes before carving
  11. Serve
