Here’s a Low-Calorie Turkey Recipe For Thanksgiving(12 servings):

To reduce your fat intake, be sure to remove the skin before eating the meat.

15-pound turkey, fresh or frozen (thawed) 1 medium onion, peeled and quartered 1 lemon, halved 2 tbsp olive oil 6 large sprigs rosemary 6 large sprigs sage 6 large sprigs thyme 1 tsp salt Freshly ground black pepper Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Remove giblets and neck from inside the turkey and reserve to make stock if you wish.

Place onion, half a lemon and 4 sprigs of each herb inside the cavity.

Secure legs with kitchen string. Place turkey breast side up on roasting rack in pan. Squeeze lemon half into a small bowl. Brush bird with lemon juice and olive oil, and add salt and pepper.

Place in oven and roast for 15 minutes at 425 degrees for an initial blast of heat.

Reduce heat to 325 degrees. Baste turkey frequently with pan juices plus lemon and oil, and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh reaches 180 degrees - about 3 to 3 3/4 hours.

Remove turkey from oven and let stand for 15 minutes. Transfer to a warm platter and garnish with remaining herbs.

Happy Thanksgiving!
