Reply #4: I take the turkey apart so I can put some parts in the big frying pan [View All]

I put some watery gravy in the fry pan first and then add the turkey. Cover and cook on low until it's all warmed through and the gravy is thickened. That's just for the two of us so I don't get fancy. But it works well for turkey, chicken and pork chops. The meat is always tender and juicy from the gravy.

Truth be told I always keep the packets of powdered gravy on hand for this. I often don't make gravy and just toss all the fat laden juices in the trash. The dry gravy is very low in fat and the flavor is in the "okay" range. It gets the job done.

I like how you added the lemon slices and rosemary to the turkey and will do that next time. I'm going to make an Italian meal for xmas but am picking up a turkey for hubby's birthday in February since the prices are so good right now. I'll be sure to keep the lemon and rosemary in mind! :D
