2 tbsp.
all-purpose
flour
4
sprigs
flat-leaf
parsley,
stems
removed
and
leaves
finely
chopped
(optional)
Directions
The
night
before
you
plan
to
cook
the
turkey,
remove
the
packaging
and
giblet
bag
from
the
cavity.
Working
in
your
clean
kitchen
sink,
rinse
the
outside
and
inside
of
the
turkey
and
pat
it
dry
with
paper
towels.
Sprinkle
the
salt
onto
the
turkey
and
use
your
hands
to
rub
it
evenly
all
over
the
skin.
Transfer
the
turkey
to
a
rimmed
baking
sheet
and
refrigerate,
uncovered,
overnight,
or
up
to
24
hours.
The
day
you
plan
to
cook
the
turkey,
make
the
herb
butter:
Using
a
rasp-style
grater,
remove
the
zest
from
1
orange
and
put
the
zest
into
a
medium
bowl;
reserve
the
zested
orange.
Pick
the
leaves
from
the
sprigs
of
sage,
thyme,
and
rosemary
and
finely
chop
them
together;
reserve
all
the
stems.
Add
the
chopped
herbs
to
the
orange
zest.
Add
the
butter
and
garlic.
Stir
until
everything
is
evenly
combined.
Preheat
the
oven
to
325°F
[165°C],
with
a
rack
in
the
lower
third
of
the
oven.
Remove
the
turkey
on
the
baking
sheet
from
the
refrigerator
and
transfer
the
turkey
to
the
clean
kitchen
sink;
reserve
the
baking
sheet.
Rinse
the
turkey
and
pat
it
dry
with
paper
towels.
Insert
your
fingers
between
the
skin
and
meat
over
the
breasts
and
thighs
to
separate
the
skin
from
the
meat,
taking
care
not
to
tear
it
or
remove
it
from
the
turkey.
Using
a
spoon,
gently
lift
the
skin
and
place
spoonfuls
of
the
herb
butter
between
the
skin
and
meat
all
over
the
turkey.
Use
your
hands
to
press
and
spread
the
butter
evenly.
Rub
any
herb
butter
left
in
the
bowl
all
over
the
outside
of
the
turkey.
Liberally
season
the
turkey
with
pepper.
Place
8
onion
wedges
into
the
cavity
of
the
turkey
and
add
the
reserved
herb
stems.
Group
the
remaining
onion
wedges
in
the
center
of
the
rimmed
baking
sheet
so
they
touch.
Center
the
turkey
on
top
of
the
onions.
Place
the
turkey
in
the
oven.
Bake
for
2
to
2½
hours
until
golden
brown
on
the
outside
and
an
instant-read
thermometer
inserted
into
the
thigh
(not
touching
the
bone)
reads
at
least
165°F
[75°C].
Remove
the
turkey
from
the
oven
and
let
rest
for
20
minutes.
Using
a
meat
fork
or
wooden
spoon
inserted
into
the
turkey’s
cavity,
gently
lift
it
off
the
baking
sheet
and
onto
a
large
cutting
board.
Tent
the
turkey
loosely
with
aluminum
foil.
For
The
Gravy
Set
a
strainer
over
a
glass
measuring
cup
and
pour
the
sheet
pan
drippings
and
onions
into
it.
While
the
drippings
drain,
squeeze
the
juice
from
both
oranges.
Once
the
drippings
have
fully
drained,
set
the
onions
aside
in
a
small
bowl.
Spoon
off
2
Tbsp
of
the
fat
that
rises
to
the
surface
of
the
drippings
and
place
in
a
medium
saucepan;
continue
removing
the
remaining
fat;
discard
it
or
save
for
another
use.
Once
all
the
fat
is
removed,
add
the
orange
juice
to
the
drippings.
Add
enough
chicken
stock
to
make
2
cups
[480
ml]
of
liquid.
Place
the
saucepan
over
medium-high
heat
to
warm
the
rendered
fat.
Add
half
the
drained
onions
(reserve
the
other
half).
Cook
for
3
to
5
minutes,
stirring,
until
the
onions
start
to
fall
apart
and
caramelize
at
the
edges.
Add
the
flour.
Cook
for
1
minute,
stirring
constantly.
Stir
in
the
drippings-and
juice
mixture
and
bring
to
a
simmer.
Adjust
the
heat
to
medium-low
to
maintain
a
gentle
simmer.
Cook
for
6
to
8
minutes,
stirring
occasionally,
until
reduced
to
a
thick
gravy.
Remove
the
pan
from
the
heat
and
season
with
salt
and
pepper.
If
you
like
a
smooth
gravy,
transfer
it
to
a
blender
and
purée
until
smooth,
or
leave
as
is
with
pieces
of
onion.
Stir
in
the
parsley
(if
using)
and
pour
the
gravy
into
a
serving
bowl
or
gravy
boat.
