Apricot-Dijon Glazed Turkey Tenderloins

This glaze, using the pantry staples of apricot preserves and Dijon mustard, is a delicious way to add flavor to turkey, chicken, and pork.

3/4 cup apricot preserves

2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

2 turkey tenderloins (about 1 1/2 pounds)

2 tablespoons olive oil

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Vegetable oil, for the grates

a8 In a small saucepan whisk together the apricot preserves, vinegar, and mustard until well combined. Warm over medium heat until melted and smooth, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Transfer 1/4 cup to a small bowl to glaze the turkey. Reserve the remaining sauce.

a8 Brush the tenderloins on both sides with the olive oil and generously season with the salt and pepper.

a8 Preheat a clean grill to medium-high with the lid closed for 8 to 10 minutes. Lightly brush the grates with oil.

a8 Place the turkey on the grill. Close the lid and cook, brushing with the apricot mixture the last 2 minutes of cooking per side, until no longer pink in the middle, 10 to 12 minutes per side. Remove the turkey from the grill. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

a8 To serve, place the sliced meat on a plate and garnish with a generous spoonful of the reserved apricot sauce.

Serves 4.

a2 Cooking Tip: A turkey tenderloin is a tender piece of white meat hidden under the turkey breast. Closer to the size of a large chicken breast, it is a faster cooking cut than the turkey breast.
