Grilled Turkey Tenderloin with Peanut Sauce Time: 30 minutes
1 turkey tenderloin, 20 - 22 oz (650gr) this makes enough for the Turkey Pasta Salad, as well
2 tbs peanut butter
2 tbs soy sauce
1/2 tsp ginger
If tenderloin is quite thick (2", 5cm) cut in half lengthwise so it will cook faster. Mix peanut butter, soy sauce and ginger. Pour over turkey and let marinate for 10 - 15 minutes. Cook on barbecue grill or in nonstick skillet for 10 - 15 minutes, depending on thickness, until no longer pink in the center. Remove and refrigerate half for Wednesday night. Slice and serve the other half with warm peanut sauce.
Warm Peanut Sauce Time: 10 minutes
2 tbs peanut butter
1 tbs fresh snipped chives
1/4 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp Balsamic vinegar
3 tbs chicken stock
Heat oils in small saucepan. Add chives and chili powder and sauté briefly. Add remaining ingredients and heat through, stirring well to combine. If you want it hot you can add Asian Chili Sauce or Crushed Red Pepper to taste.
