Margarita lovers will devour this delicious pork tenderloin, which gets its flavor from a tequila-based marinade. You'll need an hour for the tenderloin to marinate, but just 15 minutes to grill to perfection. Ingredients:
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1 green onion, minced |
1/2 jalapeño pepper, minced |
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro |
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
1 1/2 tablespoons tequila |
1 tablespoon fresh orange juice |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon chili powder |
2 (1-pound) pork tenderloins |
Directions:
1. Combine first 10 ingredients in a shallow dish or large zip-top plastic freezer bag. Cut pork diagonally into 1-inch-thick slices, and add to tequila mixture. Cover or seal, and chill 1 hour, turning occasionally.
2. Remove pork from marinade, discarding marinade.
3. Grill, covered with grill lid, over high heat (400° to 500°) 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until done.
