• If the turkey starts to brown too quickly, cover it loosely with aluminum foil to prevent it from burning.
• For extra flavor, stuff the turkey cavity with orange slices, ginger, and herbs before roasting.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover turkey can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
• To reheat the turkey, place it in a baking dish, cover with foil, and heat in a preheated oven at 325°F (165°C) until warmed through.
