What is the correct temperature to cook a turkey?

The safe internal temperature for a cooked turkey is 165°F (74°C). This applies to both the breast and the thigh.

Here are some additional details:

* Use a meat thermometer: It's the only way to ensure your turkey is cooked through. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the thigh, making sure it doesn't touch bone.

* Let it rest: After cooking, allow the turkey to rest for at least 20 minutes before carving. This helps the juices redistribute, ensuring a moist and flavorful turkey.

Important Note: It's always best to err on the side of caution. If you're unsure if your turkey is cooked through, check the temperature again. Never assume it's done based on looks alone.
