For great turkey recipes, turn to chef Jason Hill, who shows you how to cook a turkey easily and without fuss, using a simple turkey brine.

Also in this roast turkey video are turkey tips for your next big holiday meal and turkey cooking times.

There are a wide variety of turkey recipes out there, but turkey tips are a dime a dozen. Today Im going to show you how to cook a turkey easily and without a lot of fuss using a simple turkey brine. Your whole family will love this roast turkey recipe.

Chef Tip: Plan on roasting your turkey about 15-17 minutes per pound.

To start, I use a clean, commercial 5-gallon plastic bucket filled halfway with cold water. To this, add:
About 2 gallons of water
1 cup of sea salt
1 small bunch fresh parsley
1 small bunch fresh sage
4 fresh bay leaves
1/4 cup whole black peppercorns

Mix the brine well. Slowly place your thawed turkey into the brine, completely submerging it in the water. Place the turkey in the refrigerator overnight. This process is very important and will add moisture and flavor to your turkey.

The next day, remove turkey from brine (and any excess liquid) and set on a roasting rack.

Preheat oven to 425 F. Stuff the cavity of the turkey with
1/4 of a whole yellow onion
2 celery stalks, chopped
1 fresh bay leaf
Small bunch of fresh sage leaves
Small bunch of fresh parsley

Next, well brush the bird with
1 stick of melted butter, paying close attention to the breast and the thighs.
Season the turkey with
1 tablespoon marjoram
1 tablespoon sage
1 tablespoon thyme

Place in 425 F oven, BREAST SIDE DOWN, for the first 40 minutes. This will help keep the turkey breast moist by allowing the cooking juice to flow down into the breast. Next, turn the turkey BREAST SIDE UP and continue roasting, basting every 15 minutes.

Chef Tip: If your pan becomes dry, you can add chicken broth to the pan as needed.

Remove turkey from oven when turkey reaches about 150 F. Let it rest for 30 minutes and the temperature should carry over to 165 F, the safe temperature for eating turkey.

Carve and serve with your favorite mashed potatoes, stuffing, and accompaniments.

Citrus Rotisserie Thanksgiving Turkey Breast Recipe

What You Need:

4 tbsp. butter, room temperature
1 tsp. garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. cloves, minced
1/4 tsp. curry powder
1 (5 lb.) turkey breast
1/4 C water
1 C orange juice

How to Make It:

In a mixing bowl blend together the butter, garlic, cinnamon, salt, cloves and curry powder until it becomes a spreadable consistency.
Rub the turkey with the butter mixture being sure to completely cover the turkey breast.
Fit an adjustable V neck rack into a shallow roasting pan.
Place the turkey breast on the V rack.
Bring the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
Cook the turkey breast 1 hour being sure to turn the turkey 1/4 turn every 15 minutes and baste with the pan drippings to ensure the turkey is browned on all sides equally.
The 1/4 C of water may be added to the pan drippings if needed.
When you have turned the breast the last quarter of a turn pour the orange juice over the top of the turkey.
Continue baking an additional 30 minutes or until the internal temperature has reached 170 degrees.
Allow the turkey breast to stand for 20 minutes before cutting and serving.

This Thanksgiving Turkey Recipe Serves 5

For many cooks roasting is the best way to cook a turkey.  The oven temperature stays constant while basting and checking the internal temperature is much easier to do.  If you live on the adventurous side then grilling, deep frying and even rotisserie might be fun to try.

When deep frying use only oils that have high smoke points such as canola, safflower or peanut oil.  Deep frying can be dangerous so be sure to have a fire extinguisher near by and don’t set the fryer on anything wooden or use it inside any building.
