Ingredients
Oven-Roasted Turkey
- 5 lb. whole turkey or something in similar size
- ½ medium onion
- 1 medium lemon
- ¼ cup minced garlic
- 1 tsp. dried rosemary
- 3 stalks spring onions chopped
Turkey Coating
- 3 tbsp. butter melted
- 1 tsp. cayenne
- 2 tsp. Chicken Herb Seasoning
Gravy Base
- Leftover Innards of Turkey
- ⅓ cup chicken stock
- 3 cups water
- 1 tsp. Worcestershire
- 2 spring onions
- 3 Brussels sprouts
- salt + pepper
- 2 tbsp. bacon fat
Gravy Spices
- You will need to double these if you did not half the amount of gravy you are using.
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1 bay leaf
- ¼ tsp. rosemary
- ¼ tsp. xanthan gum
- ¼ Cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325F. Stuff the turkey with all of the ingredients listed.
- Mix together the coating ingredients and then pour over the entire outside of the turkey. Make sure everything is coated (make more if needed).
- Bake turkey for 2 1/2 hours (you may need to cook it longer depending on the size - you want 165F internal temperature) . In the meantime, boil the turkey innards in 3 cups water and 1/3 cup chicken broth. Bring to a rolling boil and then reduce heat down to medium-low so it continues to simmer for about an hour.
- Add a few brussels sprouts, spring onion, Worcestershire and salt and pepper to the gravy. Boil for 30-45 minutes more and then blend with an immersion blender.
- At this point, you can split the gravy in half (I have non-keto family that wanted it their way) or keep it the same. If you keep it as a whole serving, double the spices that go into the gravy.
- Before the turkey is going to come out of the oven, add spices (except xanthan gum) and cream to gravy and bring to a full boil. Continuously stir and let it reduce over the next 15-20 minutes. Once it gets to a good consistency (relatively thick), add the xanthan gum and mix it all well.
- Let turkey rest and then pour pan drippings into gravy for a richer sauce.
