The Best Fried Turkey Recipe

Step 1

The night before, remove your turkey from its packaging. Pat it dry with paper towels and season it generously with cajun seasoning.

Step 2

Melt the stick of butter. Add the butter to an injector.

Step 3

Using an injector, poke the turkey and inject the butter inside the turkey breast.

Step 4

Place the turkey breast in the fridge. About an hour before cooking, remove the turkey from the fridge and let it come to room temperature.

Step 5

Place the oil inside the turkey fryer to the max line and heat to 375 degrees. Once the oil comes to temperature, use the fry basket and lower the turkey carcass slowly into the oil.

Step 6

Set the time for 45 minutes and let the breast fry until done. A thermometer should read 165 when the meat is cooked through.

Step 7

Remove the breast carefully from the oil and allow it to rest for 20 minutes before slicing.

Step 8

Enjoy!
