Roasted turkey thigh is a flavorful and protein-rich poultry option derived from the thigh portion of the turkey. Known for its tender meat and savory taste, this dish is often associated with American cuisine, particularly during festive meals like Thanksgiving. The turkey thigh is typically seasoned with herbs, spices, and olive oil before being roasted to perfection, offering a balance of hearty flavors and moisture. It is an excellent source of lean protein, vital for muscle growth and repair, and provides important nutrients such as potassium, zinc, and B vitamins. While turkey thigh is higher in fat compared to turkey breast, much of it comes from the skin, which can be removed to lower its calorie content. Its richness and versatility make it a satisfying dish, adaptable to a variety of healthy meal plans when paired with wholesome sides like vegetables or whole grains.
