Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 15-ounce pork tenderloins
2 tablespoons finely chopped canned chipotle chiles plus 1 tablespoon adobo sauce
1/3 cup plain whole-milk yogurt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon cumin seeds
Purchased guacamole

Steps:

  • Prepare barbecue (medium heat).
  • Place tenderloins on work surface. Starting at 1 long side, cut each horizontally to within 1/2 inch of opposite side. Open like book and sprinkle with salt. Spread 1 tablespoon chopped chiles down center of each tenderloin. Close tenderloins, pressing to adhere, and sprinkle with salt.
  • Whisk yogurt, 1 tablespoon oil, cumin, and 1 tablespoon adobo sauce in small bowl to blend. Transfer tenderloins to plate and brush each heavily with some yogurt sauce. Set tenderloins aside 15 minutes.
  • Brush grill rack with oil. Grill tenderloins, brushing occasionally with remaining yogurt sauce, until just cooked through and thermometer inserted into thickest part of meat registers 145°F, about 10 minutes per side. Transfer tenderloins to platter. Let stand 5 minutes, then cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Serve tenderloins with guacamole.
