Tips:
- Choose the right pork tenderloin: Look for a tenderloin that is about 1 pound in weight and has a uniform thickness. You can also ask your butcher to trim the tenderloin for you.
- Cook the pork tenderloin to the right temperature: The internal temperature of the pork tenderloin should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit when cooked. You can use a meat thermometer to check the temperature.
- Let the pork tenderloin rest before slicing: After cooking, let the pork tenderloin rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
- Use fresh and ripe pineapple for the salsa: The fresher and riper the pineapple, the better the salsa will taste. You can also use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well before using.
- Adjust the spiciness of the salsa to your liking: The salsa can be made as spicy or mild as you like. If you like it spicy, add more jalapeño pepper. If you prefer it mild, remove the seeds from the jalapeño pepper before mincing it.
Conclusion:
Pork tenderloin with pineapple salsa is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The tenderloin is cooked to perfection and the salsa is a refreshing and flavorful complement. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
