Recipe Instructions:
Ingredients
3 (1-pound) bone-in skin-on turkey thighs
1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 teaspoon dried sage leaves
1/2 cup turkey broth or chicken broth
Steps to Make It
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
