Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Grilled Asparagus
A simple marinade adds so much flavor to pork tenderloin that’s quickly grilled to create a juicy, tender dinner that’s perfect alongside freshly grilled asparagus!
Prep Time: 10 minutes (+30 minutes marinading)
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 60 minutes
Yields: 4 servings
Ingredients:
For the pork tenderloin:
¼ cup avocado oil (or another high smoke point, neutral oil) (Aisle 6)
2 TBSP balsamic vinegar (Aisle 3)
1 TBSP coarse ground mustard (Aisle 3)
1 TBSP minced garlic (Produce)
2 tsp. kosher salt (Aisle 6)
1 tsp. dried rosemary (Aisle 6)
1 tsp. dried oregano (Aisle 6)
½ tsp. garlic powder (Aisle 6)
½ tsp. onion powder (Aisle 6)
1-pound whole pork tenderloin (Meat)
For the grilled asparagus:
2 pounds fresh asparagus, cleaned and trimmed (Produce)
1 TBSP avocado oil (Aisle 6)
1 tsp. kosher salt (Aisle 6)
1 TBSP minced garlic (Produce)
Lemon zest, for serving (Produce)
Directions:
In a small bowl, whisk together the avocado oil, balsamic vinegar, mustard, garlic, kosher salt, rosemary, oregano, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth.
Place the pork tenderloin in a zip-top plastic bag and pour the marinade over the top of it. Squeeze out all the air from the bag, seal, and give the tenderloin a good massage to make sure it’s coated with the marinade.
Set the sealed tenderloin in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, up to 24 hours.
While the pork marinates, drizzle the cleaned and trimmed asparagus with more avocado oil, a sprinkle of kosher salt, and a generous amount of minced garlic. Set aside.
After 30 minutes, preheat your grill to around 400 degrees, adjusting the charcoal or flame accordingly. Let the pork sit on the counter while the grill preheats, to take some of the initial chill off of it from the refrigerator.
Set the marinaded pork tenderloin on the preheated grill and cook for 7 - 10 minutes on one side before flipping and cooking another 7 - 10 minutes more, or until the thickest part of the tenderloin registers 145 degrees. (If you prefer a more well-done tenderloin, cook the pork for an additional 3 - 5 minutes, per side.)
Remove the tenderloin from the grill and tent with foil to rest. Carryover cooking will continue bringing the pork up in temperature as it rests.
While the pork rests, add the asparagus to the grill, making sure the vegetables are perpendicular to the grill grates so they don’t fall through.
Cook, moving the asparagus back and forth occasionally, for five minutes, or to desired doneness.
Remove cooked asparagus from grill and sprinkle with lemon zest.
Slice and serve the pork tenderloin with the grilled asparagus.
