Cooking Steps
- Remove the turkey from the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C).
- Pat the turkey dry with paper towels.
- In a bowl, mix the softened butter with garlic and chopped herbs.
- Loosen the turkey skin and rub half the herb butter under the skin and the rest on the outside.
- Season the cavity with salt and pepper. Stuff with onion, celery, and extra herbs.
- Place carrots and onion in a roasting pan with broth. Set the turkey on a rack above the vegetables.
- Roast for 3 to 3.5 hours, basting every 45 minutes with pan juices.
- Check the temperature in the thigh—it should read 165°F (74°C).
- Tent with foil if browning too quickly.
- Let turkey rest for 30 minutes before carving.
