Any day can be "Turkey Day" when you make this smaller-scale main course from Mary Lou Wayman of Salt Lake City, Utah. Her moist tasty tenderloins--and tangy apple glaze--offer the goodness of turkey in a hurry without a fridge-filling surplus.

Ingredients

2 turkey breast tenderloins (about 4 ounces each)
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
1 medium tart apple, sliced

Directions

In a large skillet, cook turkey in butter over medium heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until the juices run clear. Remove from the skillet; cover and keep warm.
In the same skillet, combine the syrup, vinegar, mustard and bouillon. Add the apple; cook and stir over medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until apple is tender. Serve with turkey.
