How to cook "Oven turkey thighs"

1 The turkey thighs for this recipe are with the skin, never remove it. Rinse the meat and pat dry with a paper towel. 2 Rinse the sage and place in a blender, add the garlic and beat until a paste is obtained. 3 On each thigh, carefully separate the skin from the meat, but not completely. Place a quarter of the paste under it and spread over the entire surface of the thigh. Do the same with the rest of your thighs. 4 Place the thighs in a skillet and brown on each side until golden brown. 5 When the thighs are fried, put them on the skin side, salt and pepper and send them to the oven preheated to 180 degrees for 20 minutes. 6 Remove the skillet from the oven, turn the thighs over and return to the oven for another 30-40 minutes, until the skins are well done.
