Accidental turkey from Barefoot Contessa Foolproof: Recipes You Can Trust (page 120) by Ina Garten

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Green beans gremolata; Sweet potato purée; Mushroom and leek bread pudding

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This is Ina's best turkey recipe. I salted it 2 days ahead. Roasted 45 minutes @ 450 (kitchen got very smoky), then 1.5 hrs @ 325, roasted on a rack in a roasting pan. (My turkey weighed 13.5 lbs.) Really easy method and super tasty. Everyone raved. Turkey was nicely browned and very juicy. Drippings were good in gravy.

    I realize that I first added a note for this recipe in 2013. Still relying on it for my Thanksgiving turkey in 2017. All of the birds have been delicious.

    This recipe is indeed foolproof. The turkey was moist and delicious. It was one of the best turkeys I have ever made! The recipe is a keeper.
