Atkins Diet Low Carb Recipes
Atkins Original Roast Turkey
Directions:
This is an easy, delicious way to cook turkey. It will never be dry.
Preheat oven to 400ºF.
Have turkey at room temperature. Remove giblets from cavity. Run turkey under cold water to clean inside and out. Never soak a turkey in water. Dry it well.
Rub turkey with salt inside and out. Use about 1/3 tsp salt per pound. Insert poultry pins to draw body opening together. Use string to lace between pins (as you would lace a shoe).
Tie legs together with string if they are not already tucked under a piece of skin or brace. Bend wing tips under body and tuck loose neck skin under turkey.
Put 2 large pieces of aluminum foil crisscrossed in large roasting pan. Place turkey breast side up on foil.
Cover turkey breast with slices of uncooked bacon.
Bring up lengths of aluminum foil and seal around turkey. It should be completely covered.
Cook in 400º oven for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 350º. Cook for 15 minutes per pound if turkey is over 10 pounds. If under 10 pounds, cook for 20 minutes per pound.
