Instructions

Rinse the turkey thighs and pat them dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and black pepper. In a shallow bowl, combine flour and poultry seasoning. Dredge each thigh in the seasoned flour, ensuring they are fully coated. Shake off any excess flour.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the turkey thighs in the hot skillet and cook until beautifully browned, approximately 5 minutes on each side. Add the chopped onion, sliced mushrooms, and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook and stir until the mushrooms begin to release their liquid and the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and sherry. Stir in the dried oregano, fresh parsley, and garlic powder. Pour this savory chicken broth mixture over the turkey thighs in the skillet. Cover the skillet tightly, reduce the heat to medium-low, and let it simmer until the turkey thighs are no longer pink inside and the juices run clear. This should take about 30 minutes. Use an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the thickest thigh to ensure it reaches at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Carefully slice the tender turkey thighs and serve immediately, spooning the rich brown sauce generously over the top. Enjoy!
