Ingredients

  • 1 cup Hellmann's® or Best Foods® Real Mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsp. Knorr Chicken flavor Bouillon
  • 10 lbs. fresh whole turkey or frozen whole turkey, thawed
  • 1 large shallot or onion, chopped
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh rosemary leaves
  • 1 envelope Knorr® Roasted Turkey gravy mix, prepared according to package directions

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°. Remove giblets from turkey cavities and rinse turkey inside and out; pat dry with paper towels; set aside.
  2. Combine Hellmann's® or Best Foods® Real Mayonnaise, Knorr® Chicken flavor Bouillon, shallot and herbs in medium bowl; set aside. Starting at neck opening, gently loosen skin on turkey and evenly spread 1/2 of the mayonnaise mixture under skin. Tie legs together with kitchen string.
  3. Arrange turkey, breast side up, in large shallow roasting pan with rack; rub remaining mayonnaise mixture over outside of turkey. Tent with heavy-duty aluminum foil and roast for 1 hour. Decrease oven to 350° and roast turkey 1-1/2 hours. Remove foil and continue roasting, about 30 minutes, basting occasionally with pan juices, until thermometer inserted in thickest part of the thigh reaches 165°and skin is browned and crispy. Let stand covered loosely with foil 20 minutes before carving. Serve with hot, prepared Knorr® Roasted Turkey gravy mix.
