Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lbs pork tenderloin
1 bunch fresh parsley, stems removed
1 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 tablespoon cumin
1 teaspoon salt
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
3 small zucchini
3 small summer squash
6 medium carrots
1 lb asparagus

Steps:

  • Chimichurri: Place the parsley and the following 7 items in a food processor. Puree 30 seconds, then scrape the sides down and puree again.
  • Cut the squash and carrots in half, by length. (Cut fat carrots in quarters.) Place all veggies in a baking dish and add 1/3 cup chimichurri. Sprinkle with salt.
  • Rub ¼ cup of chimichurri over the pork loin and sprinkle with salt. Let the veggies and pork marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat grill to medium heat. Grill the pork for 15-18 minutes, rotating every 4-5 minutes.
  • Let the meat rest 5-10 minutes, then slice into ½ inch pieces.
  • After the pork comes off the grill, place the veggies on. Grill 3-5 minutes per side. Salt and pepper if needed. Serve the pork with the remaining chimichurri drizzled over the top. Serves 4.
