Roast Turkey Crown
Report
Roast Turkey Crown, an excellent recipe for your Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. Juicy, melting in your mouth, and a nice crispy skin, this turkey crown is a great option if you are not cooking for a large number of people, and don't need a whole turkey. Plus, it's so easy to make, and ready in about 2 hours. A simple recipe, but so delicious, my turkey crown recipe is all you need to have a proper feast.

Ingredients
- 1 Turkey crown (2.2 kg, 4.85 lbs)
- 50 g butter (¼ cup)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper ground
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 190 degrees Celsius (374 Fahrenheit).
- Cut the butter into cubes, then carefully loosen the skin on the turkey breast without removing it, and push a few cubes of butter inside.
- Season the top with salt, pepper and paprika, and add a few more cubes of butter.
- Add the turkey to a roasting tray, cover the turkey crown with kitchen foil, and roast in the oven for 60 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, baste well, then leave to roast for 25 minutes uncovered.
- Baste, and return to the oven for a further 25 to 35 minutes, until the turkey is cooked through, and and the juices run clear.
- Leave to rest for 15-20 minutes, then carve.
Notes
- Set at a temperature of 190 degrees Celsius (374 Fahrenheit), a turkey crown that has less than 4 kilos (8.8 pounds) is best cooked for 20 minutes per kg plus 70 minutes. If over 4kg, then it's 20 minutes per kg plus 90 minutes.
