The glaze gives a wonderful sheen to the bird. If fresh sage is unavailable use 1/4 teaspoon dried sage. Glaze, herb butter, and onion mixture can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately and chill. Bring herb butter to room temperature before using. Great additions to the menu are wild mushroom stuffing, cranberry sauce with raspberry vinegar, mashed sweet potatoes, rutabaga and parsnip casserole, green beans with walnuts, date and onion relish, pear chutney, and of course, pumpkin pie and butterscotch pie.

Steps:
- Combine apricot nectar, preserves, ginger, and honey in a small saucepan and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until thickened and reduced to 1-1/4 cups, about 15 minutes.
- Blend 3/4 cup unsalted butter at room temperature, 3 tablespoons chopped fresh sage, salt, and pepper in small bowl. Set aside.
- Melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Add onions and shallots; saute until very soft and light brown, about 20 minutes.
- Position rack in lowest third of oven. Preheat to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Season turkey cavity with salt and pepper. Place turkey, breast side up, on a rack in a large roasting pan. Slide hand under skin of turkey breast to loosen skin. Spread half of herb butter over breast under skin. Rub remaining herb butter over outside of turkey.
- If stuffing turkey, spoon stuffing loosely into main cavity; it will expand as it cooks. Tie legs together loosely to hold shape of turkey.
- Roast turkey for 30 minutes in the preheated oven. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C), and continue roasting 1 hour 30 minutes, basting occasionally with pan drippings. Tent turkey with aluminum foil; roast 45 minutes longer.
- Add onion mixture, 1 cup broth, thyme, and 1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh sage to the roasting pan. Roast 15 more minutes before brushing 1/2 cup apricot glaze over turkey. Continue to roast turkey uncovered, brushing occasionally with glaze. Add more broth to the pan if necessary. Bake 40 minutes longer for unstuffed turkey, and 1 hour 10 minutes longer for stuffed turkey, or until meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165 degrees F (75 degrees C). Place turkey on a platter, and tent with foil. Let stand 30 minutes. Reserve mixture in pan for gravy.
- Pour contents of roasting pan into a strainer set over a large bowl. Skim fat from pan juices using a large spoon. Transfer the onion mixture to a blender. Add 1 cup pan juices, and puree until smooth, adding more pan juices and chicken broth if necessary to thin sauce to desired consistency. Transfer sauce to a large saucepan, and bring to a boil. Cook until color deepens, skimming off any foam, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Tips:
- Choose the right shallots. Look for firm, unblemished shallots with no signs of sprouting or bruising. Smaller shallots are usually more tender and flavorful.
- Peel the shallots carefully. Use a sharp knife to make a shallow cut around the root end of the shallot. Then, use your fingers to gently peel away the outer skin.
- Slice the shallots thinly. This will help them cook evenly and quickly.
- Sauté the shallots in butter or oil until softened and translucent. Do not let them brown, as this will make them bitter.
- Add the shrimp and cook until pink and opaque. Do not overcook the shrimp, as this will make them tough.
- Add the orange juice, apricot glaze, and soy sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for a few minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
- Serve the shrimp and shallots over rice or noodles. Garnish with fresh orange zest and cilantro.
Conclusion:
This dish is a delicious and easy way to enjoy shallots, shrimp, and oranges. The apricot glaze adds a sweet and tangy flavor that complements the delicate flavors of the shallots and shrimp. This dish is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal, or for a special occasion. With its vibrant colors and delicious flavors, this dish is sure to impress your guests.
