Ingredients
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1 1/2 tablespoons paprika
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder see note*
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 10-12 pound Diestel Turkey, mine was 11 pounds
Orange-Ginger Glaze
- 3/4 cup orange juice I used pulp-free store-bought
- 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos or liquid aminos
- zest of 2 oranges
- 2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup or honey
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Un-wrap the thawed turkey and rinse it off in the sink. Use a paper towel to pat it dry. Place the turkey in a roasting pan.
- Add the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, and sea salt to a small blender and blend until completely combined. Spread this mixture over the turkey and allow it to sit for 15 minutes as it comes to room temperature.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Roast turkey for 3 hours, or until the breast meat reaches 160 degrees F (remember the bird will continue "cooking" once it's out of the oven).
- While the turkey is roasting, make the orange-ginger glaze. Add all ingredients to a small saucepan or skillet and heat over medium. Bring to a full boil and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has reduced to half its original volume.
- 30 minutes before the turkey has finished roasting, remove it from the oven, and brush the glaze over it. Continue roasting until finished.
- Remove the turkey from the oven and allow it to sit at least 15 minutes prior to slicing and serving.
Notes
- *Omit the garlic powder if you follow a Low-FODMAP diet
