When ready to grill, remove the turkey from the fridge and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Heat the grill to 375 F. Remove the turkey from the marinade and place it on the grill, cooking for 25-30 minutes, or until a meat thermometer reaches a temperature of 165 F.

-
Serve the grilled turkey topped with chimichurri sauce and enjoy immediately.
