How to cook deliciously - Honey-Glazed Turkey

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 325°F. Place the turkey on a rack in a shallow roasting pan, breast side up. Tuck the wings under the turkey, and tie the drumsticks together. Bake the turkey for two hours, then remove it to the counter.

2. Stage

In a small bowl, mix the honey, Dijon mustard, rosemary, onion powder, salt, garlic powder and pepper. Brush the glaze over the still-warm turkey. Bake the turkey for an additional 1 hour and 45 minutes to 2 hours and 15 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh reaches 170° to 175°. Baste it occasionally with the pan drippings to ensure moist meat, and cover it loosely with foil if it begins to brown too quickly.

3. Stage

Melt the butter in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion and celery, then cook, stirring frequently, until tender. Add the stuffing cubes, poultry seasoning, chicken bouillon granules, pepper, rosemary, lemon-pepper seasoning and salt, tossing to combine. Stir in enough boiling water to reach the desired moistness. Transfer the stuffing to a greased 13x9-inch baking dish. Bake, covered, for one hour. Uncover and bake until lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes longer.

4. Stage

Remove the turkey from the oven, then cover it loosely with foil and let it stand for 15 minutes before carving. If you'd like gravy, skim the fat and thicken the pan drippings over heat. Serve the gravy poured over the turkey and stuffing, or alongside your favorite turkey side dishes, for a hearty, filling feast.
