APPLE-BRAISED TURKEY THIGHS
We're calling this the ultimate autumnal dinner. Turkey thighs are braised in a combination of apple cider and cider vinegar along with Granny Smith apples and shallots. This dish is quick to prepare and tastes even better the next day; let it cool completely in the pan sauce, then reheat gently in a covered pot.
