15-25 lb. fresh turkey

3/4 cup olive oil

2 Tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary, plus 2 whole sprigs

1 Tablespoon chopped fresh thyme

2 Tablespoons chopped fresh sage

1/2 cup chopped flat leaf parsley

Salt and black pepper, as needed

Remove neck and gizzards from the turkey, and set aside for another use. Wash turkey with cold water and dry with paper towels. Set aside.

Chop all fresh herbs, except for two whole sprigs rosemary and place in a small bowl. Drizzle the olive oil into the herbs. Rub the turkey inside the cavity and out with the olive oil herb mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stuff onion into the turkey cavity.

Spray the roasting rack with a nonstick spray. Place the turkey on a rack tall enough so that most of the turkey is above the sides of the roasting pan. Adjust oven rack to position 1. Preheat oven to 350° on Pure Convection™. Place turkey in oven. Roast the turkey until the internal tempera- ture reaches 180°, or until golden brown and cooked through ( about 2-3 hours, depending on turkey size). Remove and let rest for 15 minutes before carving.
