The thigh of a turkey in foil in the oven baked

4 servings
2 hours


1. Wash and dry the turkey leg.

2. Cut half the onion into slices.

3. Marinade. Put all the ingredients in the bowl of the blender and grind to a monotonous mass.

4. Grate the turkey leg with the resulting mass, trying to rinse the meat under the skin with marinade.

5. Pour a little olive oil onto the doubled foil, put the chopped onions. Lay a turkey leg on top. Arrange sprigs of thyme and rosemary on the sides. Wrap the turkey in foil.

6. Put a baking sheet with turkey in the oven preheated to 200˚S and bake until tender for about
1. 5 hours, periodically pouring juice on the leg. You can check the readiness by puncturing the meat with a knife in the thickest part: the released juice must be transparent. 40 minutes before you're ready to open and cook the foil until toasted (I turned on the top grill in the last 10 minutes).

7. Decoration. Cut half of the lemon into thin circles. Wash and dry the herbs.

8. On a plate, arrange the lemon circles, thyme sprigs and rosemary, top with the finished leg and slice it.
