Turkey Tenderloin Sandwiches
4 Servings Prep: 10 min. + marinating Grill: 10 min.
Ingredients
4 turkey breast tenderloins (4 ounces each)
1/4 cup canola oil
1/4 cup sherry or chicken broth
1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons dried minced onion
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon pepper
4 whole wheat hamburger buns, split
1 slice red onion, separated into rings

Directions
Flatten tenderloins to 3/4-in. thickness. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the oil, sherry or broth, soy sauce, lemon juice, onion, ginger and pepper; add the turkey. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for at least 3 hours, turning occasionally.

Drain and discard marinade. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill turkey, uncovered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 4 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. Serve on buns with onion, tomato and lettuce. Yield: 4 servings.
