  • Turkey is a lean, diet-friendly meat. It's a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health — one more reason to keep it in your rotation. Turkey is traditionally served with fried or boiled potatoes; here the vegetables cook right alongside the meat, making the dish even heartier. Rinse, trim, and pat the turkey dry with a paper towel. This recipe uses drumsticks, but with small tweaks you can use other cuts. Halve a lemon and squeeze the juice over the turkey pieces. For the seasoning rub, mix 1 teaspoon salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and thyme in a small bowl, then rub it all over the drumsticks. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel, wash, and dice the onion; peel, rinse, and dry the carrots and potatoes (smaller ones work best). Heat vegetable oil in a well-warmed skillet and sauté the onion over medium heat until golden. Add the carrots and potatoes, season with salt, and fry until golden, stirring occasionally. Transfer the vegetables to a greased baking dish and set the turkey on top. Warm the wine in a small saucepan (use a dry white with minimal sugar); as soon as it comes to a boil, pour it over the turkey and vegetables. Bake for about 1.5 hours, or until the meat is fully cooked. Once the skin browns, cover the dish with foil. Serve garnished with chopped fresh herbs and a glass of dry white wine. Enjoy!
