Rosemary Roasted Turkey
3/4 cup olive oil 3 tablespoons minced garlic 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning 1 teaspoon ground black pepper salt to taste 1 (12 pound) whole turkey|

In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic, rosemary, basil, Italian
seasoning, black pepper and salt. Set aside.

fingers between the breast and the skin. Work it loose to the end of
the drumstick, being careful not to tear the skin.

the breast skin and down the thigh and leg. Rub the remainder of the
rosemary mixture over the outside of the breast. Use toothpicks to seal
skin over any exposed breast meat.
