  • Make basting liquid:

  • Bring broth, butter, and wine to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat.
  • Add the rosemary and zest and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Add the honey, remove from heat, set liquid aside, and keep warm.
  • Roast the turkey:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Season the turkey with salt and pepper.
  • Truss the turkey and place, breast side up, in a roasting pan fitted with a wire rack.
  • Add garlic cloves and lemon slices in the pan and roast for 30 minutes.
  • Baste turkey with liquid and roast, basting again every 30 minutes, until a thermometer inserted into the thigh meat reads 175 degrees F -- about 3 hours.
  • If you plan to make gravy, reserve the pan drippings.
  • Let the turkey rest for 30 minutes before carving.
