GRILLED OR PAN ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN IN HONEY LIME CHIPOTLE MARINADE RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Trim tenderloins of fat and silver skin as much as possible. Place in a large ziploc bag or other container to marinate. In a bowl combine lime juice, zest, honey, salt, and garlic powder. Stir to combine, then pour half over tenderloins, reserving half for sauce. To tenderloins add chiles and adobo sauce. Seal and marinade in fridge. About 30 minutes before you are ready to cook, remove pork from fridge and allow to come to room temperature. Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large, heavy oven-proof skillet (like a cast iron skillet), heat enough oil to coat over medium high temperature. Remove tenderloins from marinade and sear in hot skillet on all sides. Place the skillet in the oven and roast tenderloins for about 15 min. Check temperature with an instant read thermometer. Remove pork from the oven at approximately 140-145, cover pork in skillet with foil. Let rest on the counter for 5-10 minutes or until temperature rises to 150. Remove pork to a cutting board, pour reserved lime juice mixture into skillet with meat juices and heat on high. Allow sauce to reduce and thicken slightly, then pour over sliced pork tenderloins. If you don't have enough sauce or it thickens too much you can add a little water and continue simmering it until it is the quantity and thickness you want. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro. If you choose to grill, start at step 5 and grill your tenderloins about 15 minutes. Remove from the grill to a platter at 140°F. Pour reserved lime juice mixture over meat and cover with foil. Allow to rest 10 minutes. Then slice, garnish with cilantro and serve.

GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Trim the pork tenderloin of any excess fat and silver skin.
• Place the lime zest, lime juice, honey, salt, and garlic powder in a small, lidded jar and shake to combine. Pour half of the marinade mixture into a 1-gallon resealable bag, add the chipotle pepper, and move around to combine. Add the pork tenderloin to the bag and seal, removing as much air as possible and place in a container to catch any leaks. Marinate in the refrigerator for 6 to 24 hours, rotating the bag halfway through the time. Place the remaining marinade in a covered container and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Remove the tenderloin from the bag and allow to sit at room temperature while preparing the grill. Remove the reserved marinade from the refrigerator.
• Fill a large chimney starter with natural lump charcoal and light. Once the charcoal is ashy and white, approximately 30 minutes, dump the hot charcoal onto the lowest grate of the grill and spread into an even layer using extra-long tongs. Place the cooking grate back on the grill and cover with the lid; heat the grate to medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Brush the grill with vegetable oil. Remove the tenderloin from the bag and place in the center of grate. Discard bag with marinade. Cover and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, turning every 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, until the tenderloin reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees F.
• Remove the tenderloin from the grill and place on a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil folded at the edges to create a basket, and pour on the reserved marinade. Wrap tightly and rest for 10 minutes. Remove to a cutting board and slice. Garnish with cilantro and serve.
