Clock

Ingredients

  • ½ cup apple cider vinegar
  • 3 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • 3 lb turkey breast tenderloins
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 Tbsp whole peppercorn medley
  • 2 tsp dried rosemary
  • 2 tsp dried parsley
  • 1 tsp dried sage
  • 1½ tsp dried thyme, divided
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • ⅓ cup butter, melted
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • ⅓ cup all purpose flour
  • ½ tsp poultry seasoning
  • 3 cups chicken broth

Instructions

  1. Combine vinegar, sugar, mustard, and onion powder in a gallon-size zip top plastic bag. Add tenderloins; and turn to coat in marinade. Let stand 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
  2. Remove tenderloins from marinade, discarding marinade. Combine garlic, peppercorns, rosemary, parsley, sage, 1 tsp thyme, and salt in a small bowl.
  3. Pat tenderloins dry; coat both sides with peppercorn mixture, pressing to adhere.
  4. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add tenderloins, in batches, and cook 7 to 8 minutes or until browned on all sides, turning occasionally.
  5. Transfer tenderloins to a foil-lined large rimmed baking sheet. Bake 12 to 18 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer inserted in thickest portion reads 165°F. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
  6. Meanwhile, melt butter in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook for 5 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally.
  7. Reduce the heat to low. Add flour to pot and whisk for 8 minutes or until smooth and light brown.
  8. Stir in ½ tsp thyme and poultry seasoning. Increase heat to medium. Whisk in broth and bring to a boil. Cook until thickened, whisking. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
