Honey-Lime Glazed Turkey Tenderloin Recipe | Easy & Delicious

INGREDIENTS

2/3 cup fresh orange juice, divided 3 tablespoons minced shallots or onion 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel 1/2 teaspoon grated lime peel 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice 2 whole turkey tenderloins (about 3/4 pound each) 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/2 teaspoon salt 2‑1/2 tablespoons honey 1 teaspoon cornstarch

PREPARATION:

1. Combine 1/3 cup orange juice, shallots, lemon peel, lime peel, lemon juice and lime juice in small bowl; mix well. Reserve 1/3 cup of juice mixture; cover and refrigerate. Place turkey in large resealable food storage bag; add remaining juice mixture to bag. Seal bag tightly, turning to coat. Marinate in refrigerator 1 to 2 hours, turning once.
2. Prepare grill for direct cooking.
3. Drain turkey; discard marinade from bag. Brush turkey with oil; sprinkle with salt. Place turkey on grid. Grill turkey, on covered grill, over medium-hot coals 15 to 20 minutes or until no longer pink in center, turning halfway through grilling time. (If desired, insert instant-read thermometer* into center of thickest part of tenderloin. Thermometer should register 170°F.)

   *Do not leave instant-read thermometer in tenderloins during grilling since the thermometer is not heatproof.

4. Meanwhile, combine reserved juice mixture and honey in small saucepan. Combine remaining 1/3 cup orange juice and cornstarch in small bowl; mix until smooth. Add to juice mixture in saucepan. Simmer, uncovered, over medium heat about 5 minutes or until thickened and reduced to 1/2 cup.
5. Transfer turkey to carving board. Carve turkey crosswise into thin slices; drizzle with sauce.
