Recipe instructions

  1. Heat oven to 350.
  2. I use bone-in with skin turkey thighs, it adds more flavor to the dish.

  4. Put a heaping tablespoon of pesto between skin and meat, cover with skin and lightly massage.
  5. Take some left over pesto and rub over the outside of the thighs covering the top and bottom of each thigh with the pesto.
