Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Turkey thighs, bone-in, skin-on
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 teaspoons Fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the turkey thighs dry with paper towels. This helps achieve a crispier skin during roasting.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, lemon zest, salt, black pepper, paprika, and onion powder.
Rub the herb mixture generously over both sides of the turkey thighs, ensuring they are well coated.
Place the seasoned turkey thighs skin-side up on a roasting pan lined with a rack to allow for even heating.
Roast the turkey thighs in the preheated oven for about 60-75 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden brown and crispy.
Allow the turkey thighs to rest for 10 minutes before carving. This helps the juices to redistribute, keeping the meat moist.
Serve warm, and enjoy your delicious keto herb-roasted turkey thighs with your favorite keto sides!
