Ingredients

  • 2 pounds pork tenderloin
  • 1/2 lemon juiced
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ¼ cup oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons honey

Instructions

Marinate the pork

  • Pat pork tenderloin dry with a paper towel.
  • Stir together lemon juice, garlic, dried herbs, oil, salt, pepper, Dijon mustard, and honey.
  • Pour half of the mixture into a large Ziploc bag along with the tenderloin. Press out excess air, seal the bag, and chill for 30 minutes.

Grill the pork

  • Preheat grill to medium and oil the grates.
  • Using tongs, transfer pork to the grill. Close the grill and cook 15-20 minutes, turning every few minutes to ensure even cooking and brushing reserved marinade over all sides of the pork half way through grilling.
  • Transfer to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

If pork tenderloin is more than 2 1/2 inches thick and you want no pink in the middle once fully cooked, cut tenderloin in half lengthwise to yield two thinner tenderloin pieces and proceed with recipe as written.
