McCormick Herb-Seasoned Roast Turkey Rub

1. 1

   Position the oven rack on the lowest level. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Set a roasting rack in a shallow roasting pan. In a small bowl, combine sage or poultry seasoning, paprika, seasoned salt, garlic powder, pepper, and nutmeg.

2. 2

   Pat the turkey dry with paper towels. Place the turkey, breast-side up, in the prepared pan. Sprinkle about half of the seasoning mixture inside the turkey. Stuff with the onion and bay leaves. Brush the turkey breast with oil. Rub the remaining seasoning mixture over the entire surface and under the skin of the turkey. Add 1/2 cup water to the pan. Loosely cover the turkey with heavy-duty foil.

3. 3

   Roast for 1 hour.

4. 4

   Remove the foil.

5. 5

   Roast 2 to 2 1/2 hours more, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (175 degrees F in the thigh), basting occasionally with the pan juices.

6. 6

   Remove the turkey from the oven. Let it stand for 20 minutes.

7. 7

   Transfer to a platter or carving board to slice. Reserve the pan juices to make gravy or to serve with the turkey.
