Lemon Garlic Herb Marinated Pork Tenderloin.
It’s what’s for dinner!
If you are a pork fan, like I am fast becoming, this marinated tenderloin is a MUST try!
It turns out tender and juicy with a fresh citrusy herb flavor that pairs great with potatoes and fresh vegetables for a delicious, easy weeknight dinner.
Prepare and marinade the meat the night before, then all you have to do is throw it on the grill for 10-15 minutes for dinner.
Leftovers are great sliced thinly for sandwiches or tossed in a stir-fry. Such a bonus to get a couple completely different meals from one easy recipe.
Hope you will give it a try, and hope you enjoy as much as we did.
Lemon Garlic Herb Marinated Pork Tenderloin
- 4 Fresh Ripe Lemons, Juiced and Zest from one
- 1/2 cup Olive Oil
- 6 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 Tbsp chopped fresh Rosemary
- 1 Tbsp chopped fresh Thyme (or 1 tsp dried)
- 2 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp ground Black Pepper
- 2 Pork Tenderloins (approx. 1 lb each)
Directions:
Make marinade by whisking together first 8 ingredients. Pour into large Ziploc bag. Add the pork tenderloins and coat. Marinade overnight in refrigerator or at least 8 hours.
Preheat grill to 400 degrees F. Place tenderloins on grill. Discard excess marinade. Grill 10-15 minutes or until meat reaches 135 degrees F. Allow to rest 5-10 minutes. Cut into thin slices to serve.
Enjoy with roasted new potatoes and steamed broccoli or your favorite vegetable.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi

I usually dose it liberally with some Santorini Sunset seasoning, then sous vide it before searing in a cast-iron skillet. 🙂 I bought that seasoning from Kouzouna’s Kitchen.
