Turkey Thighs With Pickled Cranberries And Onions For Two Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Place thighs in crockpot.
• 2. Mix together cranberry sauce, orange juice, onion soup mix, garlic cloves, salt and pepper and pour over turkey thighs. Cook on low 8 hours.
• 3. Remove turkey from crock. Strain juices into a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Mix together the triple sec and cornstarch. Whisk the cornstarch mixture into gravy until thickened. Add the cream of mushroom soup. Serve over turkey and there is plenty for potatoes. Garnish with parsley

Steps:

• Rinse and pat the turkey thighs dry with paper towels, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. In a shallow bowl, mix the flour with poultry seasoning until well combined.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; dredge the turkey thighs all over with the seasoned flour, shake off excess flour, then cook the turkey thighs in the hot oil until the meat is browned, about 5 minutes per side.
• Stir the onion, mushrooms, and garlic into the pan. Stir until the mushrooms have begun to give up their juice and the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Whisk the chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and sherry together in a bowl, and stir in the oregano, parsley, and garlic powder. Pour the mixture over the turkey thighs. Cover the pan, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the turkey meat is no longer pink inside and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Slice the turkey thighs, and serve with sauce.
