Turkey is meant for a TurboChef oven—the results are just
amazing. You don’t need to baste the turkey because it is not in the
oven long enough to dry out the white meat. The turkey will be
moist with a crisp golden brown skin. It can almost be considered
a “last-minute meal.”
1. Set oven rack in the middle position. Select “Cookbooks” on the
touchscreen. Select “Eggs, Poultry & Meats” followed by “Roast
Turkey.” Press “Preheat” to begin the preheat cycle.
2. Empty and rinse the turkey’s cavity. Use a paper towel to pat
dry. Tuck the wings under so the tips fold in.
3. Quarter the lemons and place them in the cavity.
4. Surround the lemons with whole sprigs of rosemary and tie the
legs together loosely. Rub olive oil over top of turkey. Sprinkle
with kosher salt and cracked black pepper.
5. Place turkey on a rack in a roasting pan. Place in the oven and
press “Start.” Bake under “Turkey” for 42 minutes. Turkey is done
when thermometer reads at least 165ºF in the thigh and juices
run clear. If necessary, use the “Cook More” function at the end
of the cook cycle to add a few more minutes to the cook time.
Let turkey rest 10 to 20 minutes before serving.
Yield: 8 to 10 servings
1. Melt butter in a saucepan. Add  our and stir constantly until
mixed. Heat slowly until bubbly, for about 5 minutes.
2. Pour turkey drippings into a measuring cup. Pour o fat that
 oats to the top and use only the “juice” from the drippings.
You may also substitute chicken broth. Mixing constantly with
a wire whisk, slowly add turkey drippings to the butter and
 our mix.
3. Whisk gravy until smooth. Adjust thickness by adding
additional drippings or reduce by simmering.
4. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Helpful Hints : The TurboChef 30” can handle up to a
24 pound turkey. To cook a turkey up to 24 pounds, select “Cook
Mode” then “Roast” then “Chicken & Fowl” followed by “Turkey,”
“Whole,” and “Unstu ed.” Select the turkey’s weight. The oven
automatically adjusts the cook time for the selected weight. If the
turkey is over 20 pounds, you will want to use the lower oven rack
position. You will also have the option to cook a stu ed turkey.
