Ingredients
  

For the Pork Tenderloin

  • 1 pound pork tenderloin all silver skin removed
  • ⅓ cup apricot or peach preserves
  • 1 chili in adobo minced
  • 1 teaspoon adobo sauce
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper

For the Peach Salsa

  • 2 cups peeled, pitted, and chopped fresh peaches
  • ¼ cup finely diced red onion
  • 1 jalapeño or serrano pepper finely minced, or more to taste
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 lime juiced (about 1 tablespoon)

Instructions
 

Make the Peach Salsa

  • In a small bowl, combine the peaches, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, and lime juice. Stir well and let stand at room temperature for at least 30 minutes while you prepare the pork tenderloin.

Prepare the Chipotle Glaze

  • In a small bowl, combine the preserves, minced chipotle Chile and adobo sauce.

Season and Glaze the Pork

  • Pat the pork tenderloin dry and season with salt and pepper. Brush with about half the glaze, reserving the remainder for cooking.

Cook the Pork

    Grill Method

    • Preheat a grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates. Grill the pork, turning occasionally and brushing with the reserved glaze, until nicely browned and the internal temperature reaches 145ºF, about 15 to 20 minutes.

    Oven Method

    • Heat oven to 375ºF. Place the pork on a lightly oiled foil-lined baking sheet. Roast for about 20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145ºF. Brush with the remaining glaze and place under the broiler for 1 - 2 minutes to caramelize .

    Rest and Serve

    • Transfer the roast to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

    Notes

    • The sweetness of the salsa will vary depending on the ripeness of your peaches.
    • For a spicier dish, add additional chipotle or jalapeño.
    • Pork tenderloin is best cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F and allowed to rest before slicing.
    • Leftover peach salsa is delicious with grilled chicken, fish, tacos, or simply scooped up with tortilla chips.
    • Because the glaze contains preserves, it can brown quickly. If the pork is coloring faster than it's cooking, move it to indirect heat and finish cooking until it reaches 145°F.
