How to Make Apricot Mustard Grilled Pork Tenderloin
- Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup apricot preserves and 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the pork tenderloin on the grill and cook for approximately 7-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). During the last 3-4 minutes of grilling, baste the tenderloin generously with the apricot mustard mixture.
- Remove the pork from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful pork tenderloin.
- Serve immediately with couscous and a side of your favorite cucumber and onion salad. Consider adding a simple Italian dressing to the salad for extra flavor.
