  1.  To make the herb butter, stir together softened butter with the remaining ingredients.
  1.  When ready to roast the turkey, preheat oven to 325F.
  2.  To the roasting pan, add broth, 4 pieces of onion, celery pieces, chopped carrots & 2 pieces of lemon.
  3.  Season the turkey cavity with salt & pepper then stuff in the rest of the onion pieces, 2 pieces of lemon & a handful of thyme and parsley.
  4.  Pat turkey dry with a paper towel & tie legs together with kitchen twine; set turkey inside a roasting pan.
  5. Use your fingers to smooth herb butter all over the outside of the turkey. If butter isn’t soft enough, microwave for 20-30 seconds & use a basting brush to spread over the turkey.
  6. Baste the turkey with the juices in the pan about 3-4 times during cooking. Roast the turkey until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
  7. Once cooked, let turkey rest 20 minutes before carving.
  1. Serve!
