Moist and seasoned with ginger, Caribbean jerk spices and jalapeno pepper, this simple grilled entrée is more tangy than hot and spicy. It's wonderful for backyard barbecues. Diane Halferty - Corpus Christi, Texas
Ingredients:
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 green onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 teaspoons chopped jalapeno pepper
1 tablespoon caribbean jerk seasoning
1-1/2 teaspoons packed brown sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh gingerroot
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 package (20 ounces) turkey breast tenderloins
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the first 11 ingredients. Pour 1/2 cup marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add turkey. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 2 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.
2. Drain and discard marinade from the turkey. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill turkey, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 7-10 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 170°, basting occasionally with reserved marinade. Cut into slices. Yield: 4 servings.
