ENGLISH HONEY-ROASTED TURKEY
Because I usually have very herb- and chestnut-filled stuffing, I wanted a roast turkey that is simple and traditional. I picked up this recipe in England, and absolutely love it. The gravy made from the pan drippings is heavenly!

Steps:
- Pat the turkey dry inside and out with paper towels. Rub the cut lemon halves lightly over the skin of the turkey. Season inside and out with salt and pepper to taste. Place the lemon halves, apple, onion, and potato into the cavity of the turkey. Place into a close-fitting roasting pan.
- Stir the butter and honey together in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until the butter has melted and the mixture is evenly blended. Spoon the honey mixture over the turkey, coating the entire outer surface. Allow to stand 30 minutes, reapplying the honey mixture several times.
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Bake the turkey in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, basting two or three times with the drippings and honey mixture. Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and cook 30 minutes more, basting frequently. If needed, use a cup of chicken stock to keep the pan juices from drying out.
- Cover the turkey with aluminum foil, and continue roasting until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 1 1/2 to 2 hours longer. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the foil during the last 15 minutes and baste one last time. Remove the turkey from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area 15 minutes before slicing.

TURKEY WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE

Tips:

- Choose a Good Quality Turkey: The quality of your turkey will have a big impact on the final dish. Look for a turkey that is fresh, free-range, and organic if possible.
- Brine the Turkey: Brining the turkey helps to keep it moist and flavorful. You can brine the turkey in a simple solution of water, salt, and sugar, or you can use a more flavorful brine that includes herbs, spices, and citrus.
- Roast the Turkey Properly: The key to a perfectly roasted turkey is to cook it at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help to create a crispy skin and juicy meat.
- Make a Simple Sauce: A simple sauce is all you need to complement the roasted turkey. You can make a sauce from the pan drippings, or you can use a store-bought sauce.
- Let the Turkey Rest: Before you carve the turkey, let it rest for at least 15 minutes. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Turkey with Balsamic Honey Sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion dinner. With its crispy skin, juicy meat, and flavorful sauce, this turkey is sure to impress your guests. So next time you're looking for a special dish to serve, give this recipe a try.
