Category: Pork I - Tenderloins and Roasts
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  


SWEET ONION SLAW:
4 cups packaged coleslaw mix with carrots
1 large sweet onion, thinly sliced
1/2 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
1/2 yellow bell pepper, cut into thin strips
1/2 cup Ranch salad dressing
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon lime juice

PORK TENDERLOIN:
1/2 cup hickory-flavored barbecue sauce
2 chipotle chiles packed in adobo sauce, minced*
2 pork tenderloins, about 2 pounds total
2 tablespoons garlic-flavored oil

For slaw, combine coleslaw mix, onion and bell peppers in large bowl. Combine dressing, cilantro and lime juice in a small bowl; toss dressing mixture with coleslaw mixture just until all ingredients are well coated. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve.

For pork, prepare grill with medium-hot fire. Combine barbecue sauce with chipotle chiles. Brush tenderloin with garlic-flavored oil. Grill 8 minutes per side, or until meat thermometer inserted in thickest part reads 150 degrees F. Brush tenderloin generously with barbecue sauce mixture and grill a couple more minutes, about one minute per side. Let tenderloin stand 5 minutes before slicing.

To serve, place slaw in center of platter. Surround with sliced tenderloin. Remaining sauce can be served at the table.

*Wear rubber gloves when handling hot chiles

Serving Suggestions
The slaw can be made up to three hours ahead for this spicy dish. The slaw is a great partner for spicy pork. Serve with fresh seasonal fruit and plenty of iced tea.

Servings: 6
