Ingredients

Recipe Description: 

Pork tenderloin cooks quickly and is so easy to prepare with the Smokeless Broiler. Serve pork sliced thin and topped with salsa as is, with rice, other grains or on top of grilled crusty bread for a hearty sandwich. Cook pork tenderloin perfectly by checking the internal temperature with a probe thermometer. Remove meat when internal temperature reaches 140°F/60°C. Place on a platter, cover with aluminum foil, and let rest 10 minutes before slicing for a moist and juicy meat.
