Tips:
- Choose the right turkey tenderloin. Look for tenderloins that are about the same size and thickness so that they cook evenly.
- Use a flavorful marinade. The marinade will help to infuse the turkey tenderloin with flavor and keep it moist during cooking.
- Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket. If you overcrowd the basket, the turkey tenderloin will not cook evenly.
- Cook the turkey tenderloin until it is cooked through. The internal temperature of the turkey tenderloin should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the turkey tenderloin rest before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Conclusion:
Air fryer spicy turkey tenderloin is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The turkey tenderloin is marinated in a flavorful blend of spices, then cooked to perfection in the air fryer. Serve the turkey tenderloin with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
