• 1/2 teaspoon Maggi Granulated Chicken Flavor Bouillon
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
• 1 clove garlic, finely chopped

3. Mix Juicy Juice, butter, bouillon, paprika, thyme and garlic in small bowl. Brush turkey with half of mixture.
4. Roast for 30 minutes; brush with remaining butter mixture.
5. Roast about 1 hour longer or until meat thermometer reads 155 degrees F.
