How to Make Oleta's Turkey Dry Rub
- In a small bowl, thoroughly combine 2 tablespoons paprika, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon dried sage, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional).
- Pat your turkey completely dry with paper towels. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil and the juice of 1 lime. Rub this mixture all over the turkey.
- Generously apply the dry rub to the entire turkey, ensuring it's evenly coated. Massage the rub into the skin for extra flavor penetration.
- Place the turkey in a roasting pan and bake at 350°F (175°C). Roasting time will vary depending on the turkey's weight. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the thigh before removing from the oven.
- Once cooked, remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest, loosely tented with foil, for at least 30 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bird.
