Ingredients

• 1 - 15 Pounds (lb) whole turkey, packaged
• 1 - Pinch kosher salt, to taste
• 1 - Pinch ground black pepper, to taste
• 3 - Cups prepared stuffing
• 2 - Tablespoons (tbsp) heavy whipping cream

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
2. Lay the deboned turkey, skin-side down, on a cutting board. Even out the meat by slicing through thicker areas and rearranging over thinner parts to create an even thickness.
3. Season the turkey with salt and black pepper. Press the stuffing all over the surface of the meat.
4. Fold the long edges of the turkey around the stuffing into the center and carefully turn the turkey seam-side down. Tie the leg-end with kitchen twine to secure, and repeat ties at 2-inch intervals along the length of the turkey. Season with salt and transfer to a large roasting pan.
5. Roast the turkey in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and continue roasting until an instant-read thermometer reads 155 degrees F (68 degrees C) in the thickest part, about 1.5 hours.
6. Remove from the oven and transfer the turkey to a platter. Discard the twine and let rest until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 20 minutes.
7. While the turkey rests, place the roasting pan over medium-high heat and stir in the cream. Cook and stir until the sauce thickens and reduces, 3 to 7 minutes. Strain through a fine mesh sieve into a gravy boat or bowl.
8. Slice the turkey crosswise and serve with the gravy.
