  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Baste turkey with sheet juices and continue baking, basting turkey every 15 minutes, until thighs are no longer pink in the centers, about 30 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
