Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 Tbsp. freshly-squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 1/4 cup dry sherry (or red wine)
  • 2 Tbsp. minced onion

Instructions

  1. Wash your hands thoroughly when preparing poultry.

  5. Place in the refrigerator and marinate for 2 hours.
  6. Remove the turkey breasts from the marinade and grill on direct heat for 5 – 6 minutes on each side, or until a meat thermometer registers 170 F degrees, and the turkey is no longer pink inside.
  7. Discard the marinade.
