Equipment

air fryer
small bowl
wire whisk
pastry brush

Ingredients

24 oz turkey tenderloin
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoon favorite seasoning blend
⅓ cup apricot jam or preserves
2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Instructions

Remove the tenderloins from the package and pat them dry with paper towels. Rub the tenderloins with oil and then sprinkle generously with the spice mix.
24 oz turkey tenderloin, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 2 teaspoon favorite seasoning blend
Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper and place the tenderloins inside in a single layer. Cook at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
Meanwhile in a small bowl, whisk together the preserves and vinegar. Brush the tenderloins with the glaze and cook for 5 minutes. Brush with more glaze and cook another 5 minutes or until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 155 degrees when checked with an instant read meat thermometer. Note the cook time may vary if you have very large pieces of meat.
⅓ cup apricot jam or preserves, 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Remove the air fryer tray from the fryer and allow the meat to rest for 10 minutes, tented with aluminum foil. Transfer to a cutting board to slice slicing. Serve hot with your favorite sides.

Notes

Serving Suggestions: Serve turkey tenderloin with steamed veggies, mashed potatoes and gravy, cranberry sauce, stuffing, and other traditional Thanksgiving side dishes. It's also good served simply with a carb and veg.

Shop Your Kitchen: There are so many different subs you can consider based on what you have.

Use a pork tenderloin instead of turkey.
Switch up the jam for another flavor or use a favorite mustard or savory sauce.
Use a different seasoning mix.

To Make a Meal Prep: Divide the tenderloin into meal prep dishes with your favorite sides.

Freeze Extra for Later: Cook an extra tenderloin. Slice, wrap, and chill prior to storing in the freezer. Thaw and reheat within 6 weeks for best texture.

Make a Plan for Leftovers: Promptly store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator, for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave. If you store your leftovers in clear containers, they’re more likely to get eaten. Freeze for longer storage.
