Time: 30 to 45 minutes
Serves: 4

Ingredients
3/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup juice from 2 limes
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 Tbsp. molasses
2 tsp. minced canned chipotle chiles in adobo
1 to 1 & 1/2 lbs turkey tenderloins
pepper
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro

Directions
Stir orange juice, lime juice, brown sugar, molasses, and chipotle chiles in a small bowl.
Sprinkle turkey with pepper. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook turkey until browned on all side, about 5 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium. Add orange juice mixture and cook, turning turkey occasionally, until turkey is 160 F, 14-17 minutes.
Transfer turkey to cutting board, tent loosely with foil for 5 minutes.
Simmer glaze until thick and syrupy, 3-4 minutes. 
Cut tenderloins into 1/2 inch slice and arrange on platter. Stir cilantro into glaze and pour over turkey.
