Chipotle Pork Tenderloin with Red Currant Salsa
This recipe serves: 4
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
For the pork:
2 pork tenderloins
1 chipotle pepper, rehydrated, seeded and chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
For the salsa:
4 tablespoons sf red currant jelly
1 tablespoon minced jalapeno chili pepper, or to taste
2 tablespoons minced shallot
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1 tablespoon chopped scallions
1 teaspoon chopped cilantro
cilantro sprigs, for garnish
Cooking Instructions
1. Using a sharp knife, remove and discard any
whitish silver skin and visible fat from the tenderloins.
2. Mix the remaining ingredients for the pork
together in a shallow bowl. (This can be done in
advance and stored in the refrigerator for 2 to 3
days.) Add the trimmed tenderloins and marinate
at room temperature while you preheat the grill or broiler to high.
3. Sear the pork on all sides on the grill or
under the broiler. Lower the heat to medium and
cook for 8 to 12 minutes, until the pork is just
cooked through. Transfer the pork to a platter
and let the meat rest for 2 to 3 minutes before slicing.
4. Meanwhile, thoroughly mix all of the
ingredients together for the salsa in a small
bowl. (This can be done in advance and stored in
the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days.)
5. Serve 3 or 4 slices of pork, garnished with a
dollop of salsa and fresh cilantro sprigs.

You can skip the red currant salsa, if you can't find the sf jelly; I think the pork would be just fine marinated, cooked and served with a large green salad.
