Turkey Thigh, Cooked

EverydayCooked

Turkey thigh is a dark meat poultry cut known for its higher fat content and richer flavor compared to leaner breast meat. When cooked using methods like roasting or braising, the connective tissues break down to create tender, juicy meat that provides substantial protein along with iron and zinc. While skin-on preparations increase saturated fat levels, removing the skin offers a balance between flavor and reduced calorie density.
