My husband, Dave, and I have been in a dinner group with three other couples for a few years. We often share our recipes. The pork was served by one of the couples, and I decided to pear it with this fabulous salsa. Ingredients:
1/4 cup lime juice |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cumin |
1-1/2 teaspoons dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
2 pork tenderloins (about 1 pound each), cut into 3/4-inch slices |
pear salsa: |
4 cups chopped peeled pears (about 4 medium) |
1/3 cup chopped red onion |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint or 2 teaspoons dried mint |
2 tablespoons lime juice |
1 tablespoon grated lime peel |
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped |
1 teaspoon sugar |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the lime juice, oil, garlic, cumin, oregano and pepper; add pork. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate overnight. Drain and discard marinade.
2. Grill pork, uncovered, over indirect medium heat for 6-7 minutes on each side or until juices run clear.
3. In a bowl, combine the salsa ingredients. Serve with the pork. Yield: 6-8 servings.
