Garlic-Chile Grilled Turkey ThighsChris Gentile
When stripped of their skin and bones, turkey thighs can look a bit, well, naked. But once they're slathered with a spice paste pungent with garlic, chili powder, and cumin, and then grilled, you'll think you're eating the most tender turkey steak ever, cooked well done, of course. And that, right there, is the beauty of turkey thighs: They can handle the heat, and even if the thermometer goes beyond the ideal of 170°F, the thigh meat will still be juicy and delicious.
Cooks' Note:
•Thighs can also be broiled. Arrange them on a foil-lined rimmed sheet pan and broil about 4 to 5 inches from the heat, turning once or twice, until thermometer registers 170°F, 15 to 25 minutes.
