SPICY ASIAN TURKEY TENDERLOINS






Ingredients:

1 lb turkey tenderloins

Marinade Ingredients:
1 TBSP Coconut Aminos
1 TBSP rice vinegar
1 tsp sesame oil
1/2 TBSP red chili flakes
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp ground ginger
2 cloves garlic, chopped





Process:
Put all of the marinade ingredients into a large ziploc bag, seal and shake to mix it up
Add the rinsed and dried turkey tenderloins to the bag, seal and shake again to coat the 
meat
Put the bag in the fridge to marinate for at least 30 mins but you can leave them as long as overnight

When you are ready to cook, heat a skillet over medium heat
Add a little olive oil to the pan just to prevent the turkey from sticking since it is a lean meat
Add the turkey tenderloins to the pan and cook over medium heat
I cook mine for about 4 mins on each side and them flip but it will also depend on the thickness of your tenderloins
Keep an eye on them, if you overcook them, the meat becomes tough. 
Once the tenderloins are done, remove from heat and let rest for 10 mins. 

This is another one of my go-to flavorings when I am in the need of something different. This one is easy to chop up the turkey and add to a salad with lots of veggies and some guac. The chili gives it just the right amount of kick.
