Ingredients
- Pork tenderloin
- 1 pound
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Salt
- 1 teaspoon, divided
- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Peaches
- 2, diced
- Red onion
- 1/2, finely diced
- Cilantro
- 1/4 cup, chopped
- Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons
- Honey
- 1 tablespoon
- Jalapeno
- 1, seeded and minced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 teaspoon of salt and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the pork tenderloin to season it evenly.
- In an oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork tenderloin and sear it on all sides until browned, about 2 minutes per side.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the pork for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- Remove the pork tenderloin from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.
- While the pork is resting, prepare the peach salsa. In a medium bowl, combine the diced peaches, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, honey, jalapeno, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Mix well to combine.
- Slice the pork tenderloin into medallions and serve with a generous spoonful of peach salsa on top.
Tips
- For added flavor, marinate the pork tenderloin in olive oil, lime juice, garlic, and spices for a few hours before cooking.
- Feel free to substitute peaches with mango or pineapple for a different twist on the salsa.
- Serve with a side of grilled corn or a fresh green salad to make it a complete meal.
