CHEF'S KNIFE TIP:
When slicing the fresh turkey breast tenderloins, use a sharp chef's knife to ensure precise and uniform cuts, which will promote even cooking and a more attractive presentation. Additionally, when coating the tenderloins with the Cajun spice mixture, gently press the spices into the meat using the flat side of the chef's knife to ensure thorough seasoning and flavor penetration.
