OVEN ROASTED TURKEY THIGHS RECIPE

Steps:

• Season the turkey thigh with sea salt and freshly ground pepper, add the marjoram, thyme, the vegetable mix and the garlic powder. Above it, pour sunflower oil and one cup of beer, resulting in a marinade, in which I left the meat for about an hour.
• Take an oven tray; I chose the heat-resistant glass tray and put the turkey thigh in it, along with the marinade. Add the apple and the pear, cut in two.
• Cover with aluminium foil and place it in the preheated oven at 200 degrees Celsius for one hour.
• Remove the aluminium foil and leave for about 15 minutes until it is copper. Sprinkle the meat with the juice from the tray from time to time.
• Serve with mashed potatoes and cucumber salad.

ROASTED TURKEY LEGS WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• In a large bowl or ziploc bag, combine turkey legs with vegetable oil, brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, salt and pepper. Toss to coat turkey in the marinade. If marinating in a ziploc bag, press the air out of the bag, seal tightly, and press the seasoning around the turkey legs to coat. Transfer turkey to the refrigerator and marinate for at least one hour. The longer, the better.
• Arrange onions, carrots, celery, and potatoes on a large roasting pan and place the roasting rack over the vegetables in the pan. Place the marinated turkey legs onto the rack. Drizzle any remaining marinade over the vegetables.
• Preheat oven to 375 F. Transfer the pan into the oven and bake for 1 to 1.5 hours (depending on the size of the turkey legs) until golden brown and the internal temperature for the turkey legs reaches 165 F.
• Turn the broiler on high and broil the turkey legs for 3-4 minutes to achieve an extra crispy skin. Make sure to monitor the colour of the turkey skin during broiling since it can burning very quickly.
• Serve with the vegetables and drizzle with the juices from the pan. You can also use the pan drippings to make an easy 2-ingredient turkey gravy and drizzle on top.

ROASTED TURKEY THIGHS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients and heat the oven to 350 F.
• Pat the turkey dry with paper towels. Never rinse the turkey before cooking it because the bacteria on the meat's surface will aerosolize and spread around your kitchen. A good pat dry is a reliable procedure and enough for the seasonings to adhere to the skin.
• In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, salt, pepper, garlic, thyme, and sage and mix well.
• Loosen the skin from the meat and rub some of the butter mixture into the meat. Smooth the skin back over and rub the remaining butter mixture on the skin.
• Place the thighs in a roasting pan and pour the broth around the turkey.
• Roast the turkey thighs for 60 to 70 minutes or until a meat thermometer registers 165 F when inserted in the meat away from the bone.
• Remove the pan from the oven, cover tightly with foil or the pan lid, and let rest for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy.

EASY ROASTED TURKEY THIGHS AND DRUMSTICKS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350° and drizzle olive oil into the bottom of a roasting pan.
• Pat the turkey thighs and drumsticks dry with paper towel.
• Insert your finger under the neat the skin of all turkey pieces, gently separating the skin from the flesh. Rub softened butter underneath the skin and over top of each turkey piece.
• Season with salt and pepper and place into your prepared roasting pan.
• Sprinkle with poultry seasoning and cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.
• Roast the turkey on the middle rack of your preheated oven for 1 hour. Remove foil, and using oven mitts, tip the roasting pan and baste the turkey pieces with the pan juices.
• Add in the potato halves, baste, season with salt and pepper and continue to roast uncovered for 20 minutes. Totally 40 to 60 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the turkey is fully cooked and the skin is deliciously crisp and brown. I use an instant read thermometer and insert it into the thigh (avoiding the bone) to get an accurate temperature of 165°F.
• Once roasted, remove the turkey thighs and drumsticks from the pan and place on a platter and scatter with potatoes. Let the turkey rest for 15 minutes or so tented under foil before serving.

INSTANT POT TURKEY THIGHS

Steps:

• Use a paper towel to pat dry the turkey thighs completely dry. Rub Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper evenly all over the thighs to season. Set aside on a plate for at least 10 minutes.
• Turn on the Sauté function on high on the instant pot. Add oil and heat until the hot oil sizzles, about 1 minute. Sear the turkey thighs for about 5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Note that the turkey doesn't need to be fully cooked at this point (and will not be).
• Add onions, garlic, bay leaves, and rosemary. Sauté until tender, about 2 minutes. Pour in wine, chicken broth, and tomato sauce. Mix well until evenly combined.
• Switch to pressure cooking mode on manual High and seal the lid (the steam release knob must be turned to the sealed position). Let the turkey thighs pressure cook until tender, about 30 minutes. Once the time is up, you can let the instant pot slowly release the pressure, about 20 minutes or quick release the remaining pressure by turning the steam release valve to the venting position.
• Stir in parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste (I used 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper). Serve over rice or mashed potatoes, if desired.
