Pesto Roasted Turkey Thighs - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 -3 turkey thighs
1/2 cup fresh basil pesto
1/2 onion, sliced thinly
1 -2 teaspoon good quality olive oil
fresh ground pepper

Preparation

Heat oven to 350.
I use bone-in with skin turkey thighs, it adds more flavor to the dish.
Take your turkey thighs and loosen the skin some without detaching.
Put a heaping tablespoon of pesto between skin and meat, cover with skin and lightly massage.
Take some left over pesto and rub over the outside of the thighs covering the top and bottom of each thigh with the pesto.
Take the sliced onion and put on parchment lined baking sheet pan. The onions should be in 2-3 small piles, one pile for each thigh.
Place turkey thighs on the onion piles.
Lightly grind pepper over the thighs.
Place in oven and bake until the tops are browned and the thighs are cooked completely through.
