Marry Me Turkey Tenderloins

Pat turkey tenderloins dry on all sides and season with salt. Add olive oil to a medium high-sided skillet and place over medium-high heat. Add tenderloins to preheated skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until lightly browned, but not all the way cooked through. Transfer turkey to a plate and set aside.

Reduce heat to medium and add shallots and garlic to skillet. Cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally. 

Add half a cup water to deglaze pan, scraping up any brown bits off the bottom. Stir in heavy cream, bouillon, Parmesan, sun-dried tomatoes, Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper, and black pepper. 

Return turkey tenderloins to skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to maintain a low simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly and the tenderloins’ internal temperature reaches 165°F on an instant-read thermometer.

In the last 2 minutes of cooking, stir spinach or arugula into sauce. 

Sprinkle fresh basil over turkey and serve with pasta.
