Ingredients
- 2 pounds turkey breast, boneless and skinless
- 2 large tomatoes, diced
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Green onions, for garnish (optional)
- Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In your blender, combine the diced tomatoes and soy sauce. Blend until smooth. This will give your turkey a rich, tangy flavor that packs a punch!
- Marinate the Turkey: Place the turkey breast in a large zip-top bag or a shallow dish. Pour the tomato-soy sauce marinade over the turkey, ensuring it's well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. Let those flavors meld together!
- Preheat the Grill: When you're ready to cook, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. You want it hot to get that perfect sear on the turkey!
- Grill the Turkey: Remove the turkey from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Season with salt and pepper. Place the turkey on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. You want those grill marks for some extra flair!
- Rest and Slice: Once cooked, remove the turkey from the grill and let it rest for about 5-10 minutes. This helps keep it juicy. Then, slice it against the grain for tender pieces.
- Serve: Arrange the sliced turkey on a platter. Drizzle with any remaining marinade and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for that extra touch!
