Roasted Turkey

Ingredients

16-18 pound HT turkey
2 tablespoons HT Traders extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon Garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground pepper

Instructions

Take the turkey out of the refrigerator one hour before roasting. Pat the turkey dry with a paper towel or napkin. Use kitchen string to tie the turkeys legs together, pressing the legs close to the turkey body. Coat the bird with olive oil. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.   In a small mixing bowl combine spices and mix well.  Season the turkey with spice blend.   Place the turkey breast sides up in a heavy stainless-steel pan. Sear the turkey for 15 minutes at the higher oven temperature; turn the oven to 325 degrees F for the rest of the cooking time.   Loosely tent the turkey with aluminum foil. Internal temperature needs to reach 165 degrees F.  Let the bird rest after roasting for 15 minutes, then begin carving.
