Chipotle Maple Glazed Pork Tenderloin Recipe

Honestly, I am not a huge fan of chipotle but this recipe sounded so good that I had to try it. It was amazing! It wasn’t too spicy which is what I was worried about as someone who doesn’t care for spicy foods. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as my family and I do!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 pork tenderloin, trimmed of silver skin
  • 4 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, finely minced
  • 1/2 cup real maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 tbsp finely grated lime zest
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp honey

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Combine lime, garlic, salt, pepper and honey in a gallon size bag.
  • Add pork and refrigerate for 24 hours, then drain pork and set aside.
  • Add pork to the hottest part of the grill and cook for 1.5 minutes.
  • Turn 90 degrees and cook for 1.5 minutes. Repeat another 12 times, or until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees (for medium rare).
  • While tenderloin cooks, mix maple syrup and chipotle and set aside.
  • Make a foil pouch and place cooked pork inside. Pour maple mixture over and tightly seal.
  • Let rest 15 minutes.
  • Serve and enjoy!
