Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350º Fahrenheit (175º Celsius)
Step 2
In a bowl stir together the softened ghee or butter with the herbs, garlic, salt and pepper
Step 3
Pat the turkey legs dry with a paper towel and place them in a baking dish large enough to allow them to lie flat.
Step 4
Use your hands to separate the skin from the meat of the legs. Rub the herb butter/ghee in between the skin and meat of each leg on both sides, as well as all over the top of the skin.
Step 5
Pour the chicken stock into the bottom of the baking dish. Transfer the baking dish to the oven and cook the turkey for an hour and 30 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the leg reads 170º. I like to baste the turkey legs with the liquid from the bottom of the pan every 30-40 minutes as it cooks.
