Notes

  • To enhance the taste of your turkey tails, opt for marinating them in a blend of seasonings, oil, and lemon juice. Marinate them for at least 2 hours to achieve an elevated taste.
 
  • Cover the turkey tail with aluminum foil while baking to prevent them from drying out and ensure a juicy result. Don’t forget to remove the foil 10 minutes before the cooking process is over so a nice crust can develop.
