Grilled Tarragon Mustard- Turkey

During the summer we love to BBQ! This Grilled dish has light flavors, and the marinade makes it very tender! Goes great with a side salad, and a veggie!


Grilled Tarragon Mustard - Turkey
2 TBSP Lemon Juice
2 TBSP Vegetable Oil
1/4 tsp Pepper
2 Turkey Breast Tenderloins, cut in half length-wise
4 1/2 tsp Cider Vinegar
2 TBSP Chicken Broth
1 tsp Dried Tarragon
1/4 Cup Butter, cubed
2 TBSP Dijon Mustard

1. In a re-sealable plastic bag, combine lemon juice, oil & pepper; add Turkey. Seal bag & turn to coat. Refrigerate up to 6 hours.

2. In a small saucepan, combine vinegar, broth & tarragon. Bring to a boil; cook until reduced by half. Reduce heat, add butter & mustard. Stir until melted, set aside & keep warm.

3. Drain & discard marinade. Grill turkey uncovered over medium heat. Heat for 5 minutes, then baste with mustard sauce. Cook 10-15 minutes longer until juices run clear. Basting frequently.

Self promotion, I love it! Actually this dish is a nice addition to the BBQ scene! Why is it we see people running around with turkey legs this time of the year at Renaissance Fairs like medieval carnivores, but also outside of ground turkey and Thanksgiving these guys are not given much air time? Great job!

Thanks for visiting my site!

Tarragon is a bittersweet herb with a hint of licorice flavor. The herb is great with Salmon, chicken, and veggie dishes. Just be sure not to use too much, because its flavor can overwhelm the dish.
