Cranberry Glazed Turkey
- 3 large garlic cloves, sliced
- 2 medium onions, cut in half and then in quarters
- 2 turkey thighs (2 pounds)
- 8 ounces fresh cranberries
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 orange with the skin and pith cut off
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon whole peppercorns
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1. Preheat oven to 375u0b0F.
- 2. Place onions and garlic in a 10-inch cast iron pan. Rinse turkey thighs and place on top of onions and garlic.
- 3. In a blender, combine cranberries, maple syrup, orange, water, apple cider vinegar, sea salt, peppercorns, and olive oil. Blend until smooth. Pour over turkey, onions, and garlic.
- 4. Bake for 1 hour, turn the turkey once, and then back clearing the sauce from the top of the thigh. Brush thighs with olive oil and bake another 30-40 minutes. (Baking with the sauce on for the first hour helps lock in moisture. Brushing with olive oil makes crisps the turkey and makes it more visually appealing.)
- 5. Garnish with parsley. Serve.
