Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs turkey tenderloin
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 0.5 tsp dried thyme
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper

Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • small bowl
  • meat thermometer

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to create your seasoning blend.
  3. Pat the turkey tenderloin dry with paper towels, then rub it all over with olive oil, ensuring it's evenly coated.
Cooking
  1. Sprinkle the prepared seasoning blend generously over the turkey tenderloin, making sure all surfaces are covered.
  2. Place the seasoned turkey tenderloin on the lined baking sheet.
  3. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) when checked with a meat thermometer.
  4. Remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute, ensuring a tender and moist result.

Notes

For extra flavor, you can marinate the turkey tenderloin for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours, in the refrigerator after seasoning. Serve with your favorite roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
