saffron-turkey-with-herb-rice-stuffing

This turkey’s all about that golden skin, seasoned simply with salt to keep it crisp. Inside and out, it’s coated in a saffron butter packed with lemon zest, orange zest, garlic, smoked paprika, and fresh herbs, infusing each bite with bright, warm flavors. Stuffed with a fragrant rice blend of caramelized onions, turmeric, pistachios, and fresh tarragon and parsley, this turkey is far from typical but still feels just right for the holiday.
