Okay get your turkey and season with salt and pepper, then drizzle olive oil evenly over the skin (this will make the skin nicely golden brown) then lay the strips of bacon over the top!. Before you put it in the oven, put an onion into the cavity!. Whilst cooking, check every 20 mins and baste with the juices from the pan and cook for half an hour per pound!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
