This delicious roast turkey will take a bit of time to cook, but most of it is hands-off, and you'll have some terrific leftovers to savour for a few days. The fresh sage, combined with butter, olive oil, garlic, and lemon zest, lends a classic herbacious flavour and aroma to the meat when it's rubbed over and under the skin. The orange juice, which forms a pan sauce with the chicken broth, a little bit of cornstarch to help it thicken, and fresh lemon juice, infuses the dish with citrusy sweetness.
