This simple skillet recipe makes it easy to cook turkey on a weeknight. The combination of sweet, spicy and smoky flavors from orange, peppers and molasses is amazing.—Darlene Morris, Franklinton, Louisiana
Ingredients:
4 turkey breast tenderloins (5 ounces each)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil
3/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup lime juice
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon molasses
2 teaspoons minced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
Directions:
1. Sprinkle turkey with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, brown turkey in oil on all sides.
2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk the juices, brown sugar, molasses and chipotle peppers; add to skillet. Reduce heat and simmer for 12-16 minutes or until turkey reaches 170°. Transfer turkey to a cutting board; let rest for 5 minutes.
3. Simmer glaze until thickened, about 4 minutes. Slice turkey and serve with glaze. Top with cilantro. Yield: 4 servings (1/2 cup sauce).
