INGREDIENTS
TURKEY:
1 (15-16 pound) (6.8-7.2kg) turkey, thawed and giblets removed
1 large onion, quartered
8 cloves garlic, smashed
10 sprigs fresh thyme
6 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons oil
CRANBERRY GLAZE:
2 cups (200g) whole fresh or frozen cranberries
1 cup (235ml) cranberry juice
½ cup (120ml) honey
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
INSTRUCTIONS
TURKEY:
Preheat oven to 325°F.
Pat turkey dry and place in a roasting pan. Can also place on a rack in a roasting pan. Stuff the cavity of the turkey with the onion, garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Brush the outside of the turkey with the oil and season with salt and pepper well.
Bake for 3 hours. Remove from oven and brush outside with cranberry glaze and bake until you have a temperature of 155°F at the breast. Remove and let rest for 30 minutes before carving.
CRANBERRY GLAZE:
While the turkey is roasting or the day before combine the cranberries, cranberry juice, honey, mustard, and pepper flakes in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
