How to cook deliciously - Sandra Lee's Cranberry-Glazed Turkey

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

2. Stage

Remove giblets and neck from turkey and rinse inside and out with cold water. Pat dry with paper towels; set aside.

3. Stage

In a small bowl, combine softened butter, 1 tablespoon fine herbs, crushed garlic, 2 tablespoons marmalade, and onion flakes. Use a fork to mix together until well combined.

4. Stage

In a small bowl combine poultry seasoning, 1 tablespoon fine herbs, salt, and pepper.

5. Stage

Use your hand to carefully loosen the skin around the entire bird. Work half of the butter mixture under the skin of the entire turkey. Rub the remaining butter mixture on the outside of the skin and season with the poultry seasoning mixture inside and out.

6. Stage

Stuff the inside of the turkey cavity with oranges and leeks. Truss if desired. Add any leftover oranges and leeks to a shallow roasting pan; pour in broth and set aside. Insert a pop-up thermometer at an angle about 3 inches down from the neck cavity and 2 inches from the breastbone, in the thickest part of the breast. Place turkey, breast side up, on a rack in the roasting pan. Place in oven and reduce temperature to 325 degrees F.

7. Stage

Combine orange juice, remaining 1/2 cup marmalade, jellied cranberries, and remaining fine herbs in a small saucepan and simmer until jelly melts. Continue simmering until mixture thickens, about 15 minutes; keep warm.

8. Stage

After the turkey has cooked for 2 hours, brush on the glaze mixture. Return the turkey to the oven and cook until the thermometer pops up or an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thigh reads 180 degrees F, about 3 hours total.

9. Stage

Remove from oven and let turkey rest 15 minutes before carving.
