Ingredients:
· 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
· 2 tablespoons water
· 1-1/2 teaspoons fresh tarragon leaves or 1⁄2 teaspoon dried, crumbled

· 1/4 teaspoon salt
· 1/8 teaspoon pepper
· 1-pound turkey tenderloin, all visible fat discarded

To Prepare:
In a small bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients. Set aside.
Cut the turkey crosswise into 1/4-inch slices.
Lightly spray a large nonstick skillet with vegetable oil spray. Heat over high heat. Add the oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Cook the turkey slices in a single layer for 2 minutes. Turn the turkey and cook for 3 minutes, or until no longer pink in the center. Transfer the turkey to a serving plate.
Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet. Cook for 15 to 20 seconds, or until the mixture reducesto 2 tablespoons, stirring constantly with a flat spatula.
To serve, drizzle the sauce over the turkey.
