I tweaked this recipe for my spicy side. Came out of a magazine.
Ingredients:
1 whole turkey, 12-14 lbs
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons rubbed sage
1 tablespoon cajun seasoning
2 teaspoons paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
Directions:
1. Place turkey on rack in roasting pan. Brush with oil.
2. Mix seasonings.
3. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of seasoning inside turkey. Spread remaining seasoning over entire surface and under skin of turkey. Add 1/2 cup water to pan.
4. Cover loosely with foil.
5. Roast in preheated 325 degree oven for 1 hour. Remove foil.
6. Roast 2-2 1/2 hours longer or until internal temp reaches 165 degrees. Baste occasionally with pan juices. Remove turkey from over and let stand 20 minutes before slicing. Reserve pan juices for gravy.
7. works well for chickens too.
