Grilled Pork Tenderloin With Black Bean Salsa

Category: Pork Dishes

Serves: 4

Ingredients

  • 1 pork tenderloin, about 1 ¼ pounds
  • ¾ cup light lime vinaigrette dressing
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (10 ounces) pineapple tidbits, drained
  • ½ sweet red pepper, finely chopped
  • 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
 

Directions

  1. Place tenderloin in a large resealable plastic bag. Whisk together the vinaigrette and cumin in a measuring cup. Pour ½ cup of the dressing into bag with pork. Let marinate at room temperature while heating grill.
  2. Heat grill to medium-high or medium-hot coals. Once hot, remove pork from marinade and grill for 18 minutes, turning frequently, until it registers 140 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. Remove to a cutting board, tent with foil and let rest 5 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the black beans, pineapple, red pepper, salt, pepper and remaining ¼ cup cumin-dressing mixture. Slice pork on a slight diagonal into ¼ inch thick slices. Serve with salsa alongside.
