Yield: 6 servings
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, or on a regular grill for 12-17 minutes, until thermometer inserted in center reads 155-160 degrees. Cover and let stand for 8-10 minutes to let juices redistribute. Slice to serve.
