Ingredients
  

  • 1 whole Turkey approximately 12 pounds
  • ¼ cup Butter melted
  • ¼ cup Olive Oil
  • 1 large Red Onion
  • 1 head Garlic
  • 1 Lemon
  • 2 tablespoon Low Carb Sugar Substitute
  • 2 tablespoon Thyme Sprigs
  • 2 tablespoon Rosemary Sprigs
  • 2 tablespoon Sage Leaves
  • 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F/200°C.
  • Take the giblets out of the turkey and wash the turkey thoroughly, inside and out.
  • Pat the outside of the turkey dry using paper towels.
  • Cut the onion and lemon into wedges.
  • Stuff the cavity with the lemon, onion, garlic cloves, thyme, rosemary and sage.
  • Tie the legs together using cooking string/kitchen twine or use the turkey skin to tuck the legs together, and tuck the wings snuggly under the body.
  • Mix the olive oil with the melted butter, add the Erythritol and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk well and rub the outside of the turkey with the mixture.
  • Fit a roasting rack inside a baking pan and place the turkey on the rack, breast side up.
  • Cook in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F/180°C.
  • Keep roasting basting with the juices from the pan until the juices run clear when you cut between the turkey leg and the thigh, for approximately 3 hours. Internal temperatures should be 180°F (82°C) in thighs, 170°F (76°C) in breasts, and 165° (74°C) in the stuffing.
  • Remove from the oven and cover with foil, allowing the turkey to rest for 20 minutes before carving and serving.
