Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9X13 X2 inch baking pan with non stick cooking spray. Then add the baby carrots, and fresh sprigs of rosemary & thyme, cloves garlic, onion sections and sweet peppers.
- 2. These are the beautiful turkey thighs that I purchased.
- 3. Combine the granulated onion and garlic with steak seasoning and Mrs. Dash in a small bowl. Then generously sprinkle over each of the turkey parts top and bottom.
- 4. Lay in baking pan on top of the vegetable bed. Add the chicken broth if desired. Spray top with non stick cooking spray, and add additional sprigs of fresh herbs. Add pan to preheated 350 degrees F. oven and bake for about 1 hour & 25 minutes, or until juices run clear when pierced with a fork and an instant read thermometer reaches 165 degrees F. I then covered the pan with foil and returned to the oven an additional 20 minutes to create a softer texture in the skin. That's optional.
- 5. Remove from oven, and make gravy from pan drippings if desired, serve vegetables with additional sides.
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.

Tips:
- Choose the right turkey thighs: Look for thighs that are plump and have a good amount of meat on them. Avoid thighs that are too thin or have a lot of bone.
- Season the thighs well: Don't be afraid to use a generous amount of salt and pepper, as well as other herbs and spices. This will help to flavor the thighs throughout.
- Cook the thighs slowly: Roasting the thighs at a low temperature for a longer period of time will help to ensure that they are cooked through and juicy.
- Baste the thighs regularly: This will help to keep the thighs moist and prevent them from drying out.
- Let the thighs rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the thighs, making them even more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Roast turkey thighs are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a special occasion dinner or a casual weeknight meal. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily create a roast turkey thigh dish that your family and friends will love.
