How to Make Roast Turkey And Bread Stuffing

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Pat the turkey dry with paper towels. Season generously inside and out with salt, pepper, and your favorite poultry seasoning.
  3. Prepare the stuffing: In a large bowl, combine bread cubes, celery, onion, herbs, and melted butter. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Loosely fill the turkey cavity with stuffing (avoid overfilling).
  5. Place the turkey in a roasting pan and add 1 cup of chicken broth to the bottom of the pan.
  6. Roast the turkey for approximately 3-4 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165°F (74°C). Baste the turkey with pan juices every 30 minutes.
  7. Remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for at least 20 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful turkey.
  8. Carve the turkey and serve with the stuffing. Enjoy!
