Instructions


0 Two to four hours before you plan to cook the pork, marinate the pork and make the sauce.
1 Coat the pork with the garlic, olive oil, zest, juice, oregano, salt, and a few cracks of pepper. 
6  Marinate in the refrigerator, removing 30 minutes before you plan to grill. 
2 In a food processor or blender, pulse all of the chimichurri ingredients until finely chopped and smooth in texture.  Taste and add more salt or lime if needed. 
7 Set aside at room temperature.
3 Turn on the grill, or broiler if you don’t have a grill, and allow to get hot.  Remove pork from the marinade, shaking off excess.  Grill or broil the pork for 15-25 minutes, until inside is light pink. If broiling, I like to pan sear the tenderloin for 2-4 minutes per side on medium high heat before putting in the oven. Temperature should register 145 F for medium rare or 160 for medium when done for either method.  
4 Allow to rest for 15 minutes.
5 Serve and enjoy!
