Using the grill to cook a lean cut of meat like pork tenderloin means easy work that's done in minutes, rather than hours. What a wonderful Easter present!
- 2/3 c. maple syrup
- 1/4 c. minced chipotle chilies in adobo sauce (look for them in the Latin section of your grocery store) OR 1/4 c. grainy mustard
- 2 T. minced shallots
- 1 T. salt
- 1 T. paprika
- 2 lbs. pork tenderloin
Combine the maple syrup, chilies or mustard, shallots, salt and paprika in a large resealable plastic bag. Add the tenderloins and marinate in the refrigerator for 4 to 24 hours.
Prepare the grill and grill the meat directly over a medium flame for about 20 minutes or until the internal temperature registers 150 degrees. Remove the meat to a platter and cover tightly with foil. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
- Yields: 6-8 servings
- Preparation Time: 30 minutes plus marinating time
