Turkey with tangerines
Description
The recipe won't take much time. I would never have thought to use tangerines and honey for cooking meat, but this recipe caught my interest, and when I tried it, I was completely won over by its simplicity and sophistication. The combination of tangerines and honey creates a truly magical flavor and aroma. I like to use plenty of pepper—then the fillet turns out absolutely fantastic. This dish goes well with any side, but in my opinion, it pairs best with a fresh vegetable salad. Serve hot.
