Steps

1 Done	Prepare the Grilled Pork Tenderloin Prep pork tenderloin by removing the silver skin and any excess fat and halving it crosswise. Dice red onion, chop fresh cilantro, and thinly slice Fresno chile.
2 Done	Preheat a grill pan to medium-high heat before coating it with cooking spray.
3 Done	Combine jerk seasoning and ¼ teaspoon of salt and rub pork with the mixture.
4 Done	Add pork to the grill pan and grill, occasionally turning, until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of meat registers 145 °F, about 12 minutes. Transfer the grilled pork onto a plate. Cover with foil and let rest for a few minutes before cutting perpendicular to the fibers into slices.
5 Done	Prepare the Grilled Pineapple Salsa Coat the grill pan with cooking spray and grill pineapple slices until grill marks are visible, about 3 minutes on each side. Remove from the pan and chop into pieces.
6 Done	Combine the pineapple with ¼ teaspoon of salt, chopped red onion, cilantro, chile, lime juice, and olive oil in a bowl. Serve the pork with the salsa.

This Caribbean grilled pork tenderloin requires little effort but yields big results. Tender and succulent, it is easy enough for a busy weeknight and scrumptious enough for serving to company.

I am an English major with a love of languages and fiction, and with an incurable travel bug. In my free time, I read fantasy, drink copious amounts of coffee, and like to go see movies. Culinary art means everything to me. My main hypostasis is the taster, though. The music school has taught me to appreciate the symphony of airy meringues, to create harmonious overtures of light snacks, hard rock of meat, fish, and vegetables on the grill. Choir classes have accustomed me to hear and feel the people nearby and create perfect harmonies of sounds.
