This simple recipe is very easy. Make it ahead of time so the meat can marinate overnight; then grill for about 10 minutes and dinner is ready. The other foods on the plate include Fresh Corn Salad and Cotija Flatbreads.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 9 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 Tbsp. chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp. dried oregano leaves
  • 1/2 tsp. dried marjoram leaves
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 tsp. pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
  • 1-1/2 lbs. pork tenderloin, cut in half lengthwise

Preparation:

In a small bowl, mix well all seasonings and vegetable oil. Place tenderloins in shallow pan. Pour spice mixture over all surfaces of pork tenderloins and, using fingers, rub thoroughly to coat. Cover pork and refrigerate for 2-24 hours.

Prepare two sided grill and preheat. Grill tenderloins on two sided grill for 6-9 minutes, until thermometer inserted in center reads 155-160 degrees. Slice to serve. 6 servings
