Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 turkey tenderloins (about 2 1/4 pounds)
8 tablespoons purchased pesto
3 ounces thinly sliced provolone cheese, cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips
Fresh basil sprigs (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Cut each tenderloin lengthwise almost in half. Sprinkle inside and out with salt and pepper. Spread 1 tablespoon pesto inside each. Then insert cheese strips, dividing equally. Using toothpicks, skewer tenderloins closed. Brush each all over with 1 tablespoon pesto. Arrange tenderloins on rimmed baking sheet.
  • Bake tenderloins until thermometer inserted near center registers 160°F., about 20 minutes. Slice tenderloins crosswise into 3/4-inch-thick rounds; arrange on serving platter. Whisk any juices and browned bits on baking sheet to blend; spoon over turkey. Garnish with basil sprigs, if desired, and serve.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my turkey tenderloins turned out dry and tough. I think I might have overcooked them.
