Begin by making the marinade. Combine the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, dijon mustard, smashed garlic cloves, roughly chopped fresh rosemary, fresh thyme, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and whisk until everything is well combined. This marinade smells like a delicious salad dressing.
2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 ½ tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 ½ tablespoons dijon mustard, 4 garlic cloves, ½ teaspoon dried thyme, ½ tablespoon fresh rosemary, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Coat the tenderloins in the marinade, then pour the tenderloins and the marinade into a Ziploc bag. Refrigerate for at least one hour or up to overnight if possible.
2 turkey breast tenderloins
When you're ready to cook, lay onions and broth in the crockpot, then pour the turkey tenderloins and the contents of the bag of marinade on top.
1 large onion, 1 cup chicken broth
Put the lid on the crockpot and cook on low heat for 4-6 hours. Even though it is set to a low temperature, my crockpot heats up quickly, so the tenderloins cook pretty fast. (Do not use a high temperature or high heat because the turkey will be dry and tough.)
The total cooking time will vary based on your slow cooker.
When the turkey is done cooking, remove it from the slow cooker, and let it rest, tented with foil to keep warm, before slicing. Check the thickest portion of the meat to be sure that the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Then, make gravy from the cooking liquid.
Add a slurry of cornstarch and water to the liquid in the crockpot and stir until it dissolves. Blend with an immersion blender or carefully in a regular blender, then cook until it thickens. You can either increase the temperature of the crockpot to high heat or cook the gravy in a saucepan. (A saucepan will be faster, but you can do whatever works for you!)
1 - 2 tablespoons cornstarch, 1 - 2 tablespoons cooking liquid
Serve & enjoy!
