Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Chop the lemongrass very finely with a knife to avoid tough fibers.
  • Since the target temperatures for the breast and thigh differ, use a thermometer to check each at the thickest part.
  • For the gravy, using 3 cups of turkey stock yields a thick consistency, while 4–5 cups makes it thinner.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to create an impressive main dish for Thanksgiving or Christmas.
  • Those who want to pair moist roasted turkey with a unique Southeast Asian-style gravy sauce.
