Recipe from package of pork chops.Prep time does not include marinating time. You can alternately use dried chipotle, just rehydrate in hot water for about 15 mins and then chop. I actually like this better as a marinade for pork tenderloin.

MARINATED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH HONEY, LIME AND CHIPOTLE

Categories Citrus Pepper Pork

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

½ cup orange juice, fresh squeezed
¼ cup lime juice, fresh squeezed
zest from 1 lime
¼ cup honey
2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1½ tsp ground cumin
2 tsp dried oregano
1 chipotle chile, chopped
1 Tbsp adobo sauce, from canned chipotles
1 (1-lb) pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
cilantro, chopped, for garnish

Steps:

Put the orange juice, lime juice, zest, honey, salt, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, chipotles and adobo in a blender or large food processor, and pulse a few times to make sure it's well blended. Put the tenderloin in a large zip lock bag and pour in about half of the marinade. Make sure the pork is completely surrounded by marinade by removing as much air as possible from the bag, then put it in the fridge to marinate for at least 2 hours, up to 24. Put the remaining marinade in a sealed container in the fridge. Remove the tenderloin and reserved marinade about 30 minutes before you're ready to cook it and allow it to come to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 425°F (225°C). Heat the oil in a cast iron (or oven safe) skillet over medium high heat. Place the tenderloin in the skillet and sear on all sides; about 2 - 3 minutes per side, then place the skillet in the oven and continue to roast the tenderloin for about 15 more minutes. Remove the tenderloin from the skillet to a plate, and cover with a foil tent while you make the sauce. Put the skillet (with juices in it) back over a high flame, and pour in the reserved marinade. Stir and cook until the sauce thickens. After letting the tenderloin rest for about 10 minutes under the foil, place it on a cutting board and slice into medallions. Serve topped with the sauce and sprinkled with chopped cilantro.

Tips:

- For a more flavorful pork tenderloin, marinate it for at least four hours, or overnight. - Use a food processor to quickly and easily chop the vegetables for the marinade. - If you don't have time to make the marinade from scratch, you can use a store-bought chipotle sauce. - Cook the pork tenderloin over medium heat to prevent it from drying out. - Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork tenderloin. It is cooked through when it reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit. - Let the pork tenderloin rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

Chipotle marinated pork tenderloin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chipotle marinade gives the pork a smoky and flavorful crust, while the tenderloin itself is juicy and moist. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, mashed potatoes, or vegetables.
