Brine A Marinade For Poultry Recipe

Brine A Marinade For Poultry

From noir 16 years ago

It is that time of the year to start thinking about the Holidays. Thought I would share a great recipe.

* water, 1 cup (or slightly more) shopping list
* kosher or sea salt, 3 tablespoons shopping list
* brown sugar, 2 tablespoons shopping list
* juices of lemons, limes, and maybe tangerines (one each, or squeeze and use rinds) shopping list
* fresh rosemary, sprig or 1 tablespoon chopped shopping list
* thyme, 1-2 teaspoons chopped shopping list
* sage, 1-2 teaspoons chopped shopping list
* roasted garlic (optional) shopping list

If you want to cook/roast poultry, especially turkey au natural, but want it really tender and moist......and who *wouldn't* want it tender and moist?!?...
then get together the above ingredients and let it sit overnight in either a bowl, pot, or zip-lock freezer bag.
Then, the next day...gently wipe that turkey down, smother with butter or oil, stuff the cavity with citrus and herbs, then roast.
PERFECTION!
