2 Tbsp / 30 mL lime juice
2 tsp / 10 mL canola oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
¼ tsp / 1 mL EACH salt and pepper

For the Salsa:

1 small tomato, seeded and chopped
⅓ cup / 75 mL chopped red onion
½ jalapeno, minced
1 tsp / 5 mL dried mint, crumbled

Directions

  1. Combine lime juice, oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Brush generously over all sides of pork tenderloins. Cover and refrigerate at least one hour.
  2. Meanwhile, combine remaining ingredients for salsa. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour to allow flavours to blend.

  4. Remove tenderloins from grill onto a clean plate. Tent loosely with foil and let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
