For our first suburban summer, the grilling
aspirations were high. But by mid-June, my waistline started to resemble a hot
dog. Enter pork tenderloin—healthy, affordable and fabulous. —
INGREDIENTS
(Serves 4)
1 whole
pork tenderloin, approximately 1 lb
1 tsp
dried thyme
1 tsp
dried rosemary
Salt to
taste
Freshly
ground pepper to taste
2
garlic cloves, minced
Olive
oil
DIRECTIONS
- Season pork
tenderloin liberally with thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper. Place it in a
Ziploc bag, add the minced garlic and coat with olive oil. Marinate the pork
overnight in the refrigerator or for at least one hour. - Allow to sit at room
temperature while prepping the grill. Preheat to medium high. Grill pork
tenderloin 5-6 minutes on each side for a total of 25-30 minutes until
nicely charred. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, slice and serve on a platter
with fresh rosemary and thyme.
