Tips:

  • To ensure the turkey tenderloins are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that they have reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • For a crispier glaze, brush the turkey tenderloins with melted butter before coating them in the plum glaze.
  • If you don't have plum preserves, you can substitute another type of fruit preserves, such as apricot or peach.
  • To make the glaze ahead of time, simply combine the plum preserves, honey, Dijon mustard, and balsamic vinegar in a saucepan and heat over low heat until the mixture is well blended and syrupy. Let the glaze cool completely before using.
  • Garnish the turkey tenderloins with fresh herbs, such as thyme or rosemary, before serving.

Conclusion:

Plum-glazed turkey tenderloins are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or weeknight meal. The tenderloins are juicy and flavorful, and the glaze is sweet and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it!
