Raise your hand if you’ve ever roasted a turkey only to find the breast dry and the flavors flat 🙋♀️. This year, we’re elevating the main event with a show-stopping Juicy Cranberry-Glazed Turkey crunchy skin, moist meat, vibrant cranberry glaze and effortless prep. At 1GlowWithin we believe your inner health fuels outer beauty and that includes your holiday table. Let’s make this the most delicious, stress-free roast you’ve ever served. Why This Works The cranberry glazing brings bold colour (outer-beauty approved) and bright flavour to the bird. For instance, the recipe uses a cranberry-orange glaze that complements the turkey and delivers a festive twist. Moisture is preserved by careful roasting and using a butter/crisp-skin strategy—no dry turkey! A glazed turkey breast recipe even calls out how it came out “so juicy, and so moist that it’s hard to believe” lean turkey breast meat can be like that. Simple enough for beginners & busy hosts, yet elegant for holiday entertaining. Works beautifully with your brand: “inner health, outer beauty” — the turkey is rich in lean protein, tied to wellness, and the plating/colour evokes luxury and warmth Ingredients (serves ~8–10) 1 whole turkey, approx 12-14 lb (or adjust size accordingly) Kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper 8 sprigs fresh rosemary 8 sprigs fresh thyme 10 tablespoons unsalted butter (at room temperature) 1 small onion, chopped 3 cloves garlic, smashed For the glaze: 2 lb fresh cranberries 1 ¼ cups sugar ¼ cup cider vinegar Zest & juice of 2 oranges 1 heaping tablespoon chipotles in adobo (optional for gentle heat) GE Latam Chicken or turkey broth (1-3 cups) for the roasting pan GE Latam Instructions Remove the turkey from the fridge 1 hour before cooking to bring it to room temperature. Preheat oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Pat turkey dry. Season inside and out with salt & pepper. Stuff the cavity with rosemary and thyme. Tie legs together. Prepare the glaze: In a saucepan over medium heat, add butter, onion and garlic; cook until onion softens (~6 min). Add cranberries, sugar, vinegar, orange zest & juice, chipotles, 1 tsp salt. Simmer until cranberries burst (~8 minutes). Strain, reserving half for serving. Place turkey breast-up on a roasting rack inside a roasting pan. Pour 1 cup broth into the pan. Rub turkey with the melted butter from glaze. Brush turkey with half the cranberry glaze. Roast for about 2 hours. After 2 h, brush remaining glaze every ~20 minutes until thermometer in thigh reaches 165 °F (74 °C). Tent with foil if skin browns too fast. Remove turkey from oven, transfer to a carving board, tent with foil and let rest 30 minutes before carving. Serve with reserved glaze as sauce. Slice against the grain, present on platter with fresh thyme sprigs and whole cranberries for visual pop. Tips for Success Use an instant-read thermometer to ensure EXACT doneness—overcooking = dryness. For leaner meat like turkey breast only (instead of whole bird), adapt cooking time accordingly and monitor internal temp to about 155–160 °F for extra juiciness (some turkey-breast-only recipes use this lower target) Craving Tasty If hosting larger groups: double glaze and save extra for reheating leftovers (in sandwiches or casseroles). To fit your “inner health” theme: Serve with steamed greens, roasted root veggies, or a quinoa-cranberry salad for balance. For “outer beauty” plating: garnish with fresh sprigs of rosemary/thyme, sprinkle of pomegranate arils, use a crisp white platter. Nutrition & Serving Lean turkey provides high-quality protein; the glaze offers natural cranberry antioxidants and citrus zest for added nutrition. Balance portions with veggie sides for a wellness-forward holiday plate. This Juicy Cranberry-Glazed Turkey makes the center of your holiday table both stunning and stress-free. With festive cranberry visuals, rich flavor and top notch texture, it aligns perfectly with our mission: nurturing inner health to fuel outer beauty. Serve it with joy, savor the leftovers, and watch your guests ask for seconds.
