Equipment
- grill
- digital thermometer
Ingredients
- 1 lb whole pork tenderloin
- 1 lime, zested
- 1/2 cup lime juice from lime (s) or bottle
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 cloves garlic, diced
- 1 chipotle pepper with 1 Tablespoon of adobo sauce
- 1 Tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
- Put lime zest, juice, honey, salt, garlic, cilantro, and chipotle pepper and adobo sauce in ziplock bag with a 1lb, trimmed pork tenderloin. Seal and squish the marinade around to cover. Allow the meat to marinade for 6 hours to overnight.
- Bring the pork to room temperature while heating your grill to medium high. Grill pork tenderloin on medium high for 12-15 minutes, turning 2-3 times. Use a digital thermometer to make sure the internal temperature reaches 140 F.
- Remove the meat from the grill and put on a sheet of foil and wrap with foil and allow the meat to rest for 10 minutes. This allows the meat to absorb the juices; it will also continue to go up a couple of degrees. After 10 minutes, remove from the foil and slice in uniform 1/2" slices on cutting board. Serve hot garnished with additional cilantro.
