Fastest Roast Turkey Recipe

"Here is a turkey for when time and oven space are at a premium The bird is butchered before cooking, its backbone removed (a technique called spatchcocking) and its legs separated, increasing the amount of surface area exposed to the oven's heat and decreasing the amount of cooking time dramatically The overall height of the turkey also comes down, so two turkeys may fit in the oven, or one turkey and a baking pan filled with dressing..."

INGREDIENTS
1 12- to 18-pound turkey, thawed, with giblets and neck removed

2 stalks celery, cleaned and roughly chopped
