This oven-roasted herb-roasted turkey legs recipe is incredibly easy and flavorful and works best for days when a whole turkey is just too much food or you are cooking for a smaller party. It uses a simple brine that’s not overly salty, which will keep your turkey drumsticks moist and juicy!<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you’re like us and want to enjoy turkey during the holidays, but having a whole turkey is not very practical because it’s a lot of food, then this herb-roasted turkey leg recipe is for you!<\/p>\n

One of the secrets to this tender, moist, and juicy turkey recipe is that we use dark meat! But being dark meat is not enough for it to stay juicy and tender; the secret is that you need to brine it in a salt solution<\/strong>. The salt in the brine will draw in moisture into the meat, which keeps it very moist!<\/p>\n

If you’re looking to use turkey thighs instead, I also have a recipe for Easy Oven Roasted Turkey Thighs with Coffee Rub<\/a> that you may enjoy!<\/p>\n
