To properly deep fry a turkey, cook it for three to four minutes per pound. For example, a 15-pound turkey will need to cook for 45 minutes to an hour.
Have your oil preheated to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Use a meat thermometer before consuming for the proper temperature, which is 165 degrees Fahrenheit for white turkey breast.
For safety, fry your turkey outside, away from pets and children, with a fire extinguisher nearby. Remember to wear long sleeves, pants, and optional goggles.
