Grilled Pork Tenderloin

Grilled Pork Tenderloin

DIRECTIONS

1. Combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, shallots, rosemary, thyme & mustard in a ziplock bag. 

2. Add the pork tenderloins and turn to coat. Try and marinate the tenderloins overnight but if in a pinch, refrigerate for at least a couple of hours. You are basically making a yummy vinaigrette to marinate your tenderloins.  Experiment with different herbs for different flavor.

3. Remove tenderloins from marinade. Cook on grill for 15-20 minutes, turning frequently until internal temperature reads 140 degrees in the thickest part. 

4. Remove from grill and let tenderloins rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Tip: The marinade is great on chicken too!
