Turkey Breast Tenders with Orange-Cranberry Sauce

Pat the turkey breast tenders dry with paper towels and season both sides generously with salt and pepper.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a light coating of oil or butter.

Place the seasoned turkey tenders in the hot skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through, turning once.

Remove the cooked turkey tenders from the skillet and set aside on a plate, keeping warm.

Return the skillet to medium heat and add the orange juice, allowing it to simmer for 2 minutes while scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.

Stir in the fresh or frozen cranberries and cook until they begin to soften and release their juices, approximately 3-4 minutes.

Add the honey and orange zest, stirring well to combine and allow the sauce to simmer for 1-2 minutes until slightly thickened.

Return the turkey tenders to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce, and cook together for 1 minute to allow the flavors to meld.

Transfer the turkey tenders and sauce to a serving platter and garnish with fresh orange slices or cranberries if desired before serving.
