Serves 6

  • 2 turkey thighs, about 2 ½ lbs total
  • 3 cloves chopped garlic

  • 1 potato per person, peeled and chopped into large pieces
  • Salt and pepper
  • Sprinkle of white wine vinegar
  • Sprinkle of olive oil
  • Broth if needed while cooking

 

Marinate the turkey

Cut deep slits into turkey thighs and rub sage and garlic mixture into cuts and onto surface. Marinate in refrigerator for 5 or 6 hours.

 

Roast the turkey

Remove thighs from refrigerator about 30 minutes before cooking. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Put thighs skin side down in roasting pan. Put pan, uncovered, into oven for about 45 minutes.

 

Add potatoes, continue roasting

Turn thighs over, add potatoes, sprinkle all with salt, pepper, white wine vinegar, olive oil, and broth. Continue roasting until thighs are done and potatoes are tender, adding broth if needed, about 45 more minutes. Stir the potatoes once or twice during roasting.

 

To serve

Remove from oven, let thighs and potatoes sit covered and untouched for about 20 minutes before serving.
