    Turkey Tenderloin Slices Tips

    What can you use instead of cream of chicken soup when making tenderloin turkey slices?

    An easy alternative to cream of chicken soup is made by simply combining 1/2 cup chicken broth and 1/2 cup milk. Whisk together and bring to a low boil, whisking occasionally until thickened. But if you're feeling extra adventurous, try making your own cream of chicken soup from scratch instead!

    How else can you cook turkey tenderloin slices?

    Instead of pan-frying your turkey, try roasting the tenderloin pieces in the oven. Check out all the ways you can cook turkey tenderloin for your next meal.
