Method

1. Zest an orange² and juice it. Mix the juice, zest, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic⁵, oil, salt, pepper, and rosemary in a bowl.

2. Rub the turkey¹ leg with the marinade and let it sit uncovered at room temperature for 15 minutes.

3. Place the turkey¹ leg skin-side up in a roasting pan and pour any leftover marinade over it.

4. Roast at 375°F (190°C) for 60 minutes, basting occasionally with pan juices.

5. Increase heat to 410°F (210°C) and roast another 10–15 minutes until the glaze is glossy and the juices run clear when pricked.

6. Let the meat rest 7 minutes, then slice into portions.
