This recipe brings a smoky and tangy flavor to tender pork tenderloin, complemented by a rich sauce and crunchy peanuts.
Combine the cilantro, lime juice, chipotle chiles, cumin, cinnamon, salt, garlic, and water in a blender and blend until smooth.
Blending the marinade ensures all flavors are evenly distributed.
Reserve a portion of the marinade for the sauce.
Keep the reserved marinade in a separate container to avoid cross-contamination.
Place the pork tenderloin in a resealable bag and pour the remaining marinade over it. Seal and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Marinating the pork for longer enhances the flavor.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Ensure the grill is clean and oiled to prevent sticking.
Grill the pork for about 8-9 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 150°F.
Use a meat thermometer for accurate cooking.
Let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the meat tender.
Heat the reserved marinade in a saucepan, bringing it to a boil, then simmer for 2 minutes.
Simmering the sauce enhances its flavor.
Slice the pork and serve it topped with the sauce and sprinkled with peanuts.
Arrange the slices neatly for an appealing presentation.
