Grilled Pork Tenderloin With Apple Sage Sauce Recipes

GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLES AND SAGE

Steps:

• Put the trimmed tenderloins in a casserole dish or resealable bag. Add the marinade ingredients and mix well to coat the pork evenly. Let the pork marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours, up to overnight.
• One hour before dinner, take the pork out of the refrigerator and let it warm up on the counter.
• Preheat the grill.
• While the grill is preheating, core and slice the apples 1/4 inch thick. Then toss them with the oil, sugar, and sage.
• Take the pork out of the marinade and pat it mostly dry, just so it doesn't have much of the marinade still on it. Put the pork on the grill, and cook it for 2-3 minutes, or until it has a good sear. Turn the pork over to sear the other side. Lay out the apple slices on the grill. Grill the pork and apples for 3 minutes. Turn over the apples. Then lower the heat to low, cover the grill and continue cooking until the the pork reaches 150-160F on the thermometer, depending on how pink you like your pork, about 10 minutes more.
• Transfer the pork and apples to a serving platter. Slice the pork and sprinkle some fresh sage over. Serve.
