After 30 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F. Continue roasting for an additional 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh (without touching bone) registers 165°F and the turkey is golden brown.

Once cooked, carefully remove the turkey from the oven. Tent it loosely with foil and let it rest for at least 15-20 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful turkey.
