This is a nice light recipe from Cooking Light magazine. The glaze also works well with chicken. Prep and Cooking time does not include the 10 minute standing time.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons coriander, ground
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
1/2 teaspoon ginger, ground
3 lbs pork tenderloin, trimmed
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup orange juice
1/3 cup water
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
6 ounces guava paste
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 jalapeno pepper, minced
cooking spray
Directions:
1. Prepare your grill - charcoal or gas - for medium to medium/high heat.
2. Combine first 6 ingredients in a small bowl. Sprinkle pork with 2 tsp salt, and rub pork with the garlic powder mixture.
3. Combine onion and remaining ingredients except cooking spray in a small saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil. Cook 4 minutes or until guava paste dissolves, stirring constantly. Reduce heat, and simmer 4 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
4. Place pork on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 20 minutes or until a thermometer registers 160 degrees, turning pork occasionally. Brush guava mixture over pork. Let it stand 10 minutes before slicing into 1/2 inch slices.
