GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH SPICY CHILE-COCONUT TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Put the pork on a platter and sprinkle all over with salt and pepper. Add the olive oil and lime juice and turn to coat the pork with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in the refrigerator.
• For the Chile-Coconut Sauce:
