Green Parrot Fried Chicken Dinner and more Main Dishes
 

GREEN PARROT ROAST TURKEY

When turkey is ready for oven, rub inside and outside with salt.  For a ten pound turkey, rub the inside thoroughly with about a pint of dressing.  Place the turkey in a roaster, breast down, add about a pint of water, cover and cook slowly (300 F.) for about two and one-half to three hours.  Remove cover and brown.  Do not turn the turkey over, and the breast will remain very juicy, although the skin of the breast will not be very brown.

HINT:  Allow any roast poultry to stand about 20 minutes after you remove it from the oven before you try to carve it.  The meat will absorb the juices, and it will be much easier to carve.
