Ingredients

• 2 pieces (approximately 1 pound total) Turkey tenderloins
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Pat the turkey tenderloins dry with paper towels, then rub them with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 3

Season the tenderloins evenly with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Set them aside.

Step 4

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Sear the turkey tenderloins on each side for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Remove the pan from the heat and set the tenderloins aside.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and water to make the glaze.

Step 7

Pour the glaze directly into the skillet that was used to sear the turkey. Simmer the glaze over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.

Step 8

Return the turkey tenderloins to the skillet, coating them well with the glaze.

Step 9

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the turkey reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 10

Every 7-8 minutes, baste the turkey with the glaze from the pan to ensure it stays moist and flavorful.

Step 11

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the tenderloins rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 12

Serve the sliced turkey tenderloins with a drizzle of the remaining glaze from the pan, and enjoy!
