Spicy Turkey Roast - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 lb. whole boneless turkey, thawed
8 to 10 cloves garlic
3 Tbsp. rosemary
1 tsp. paprika
1 Tbsp. coarsely ground black pepper
1 tsp. coarse kosher-style salt
2 Tbsp. olive oil
rosemary sprigs (for garnish)

Preparation

Remove mesh from the turkey.
Lay turkey out as flat as possible, skin side down.
In food processor with the steel blade, combine the garlic, rosemary, pepper and salt.
Turn on and add the oil, processing until coarsely chopped.
Spread half the garlic mixture over the inside of the turkey.
Reroll the turkey.
Tie firmly with string every two inches to return the meat to its original log shape.
Spread evenly with remaining garlic mixture. Place on rack in roasting pan.
Bake at 350\u00b0 for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until a meat thermometer inserted in the center reaches 170\u00b0.
A long log shape take less time than a more compact roast.
Let stand 20 minutes before removing string.
Slice thin.
Spoon meat juices over meat or thicken with flour for a gravy.
