Spiced Pork Tenderloins with Mango Salsa

We had this for dinner tonight and LOVED it. It is so summer-fresh and tasty.

Mango Salsa:
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 ripe mangoes, peeled, and diced
2 kiwi fruit, peeled and diced
1 red pepper, finely chopped
2 tablespoons cilantro, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon green onion, minced
Saute onion in olive oil until lightly browned. Toss all ingredients together gently. This will be spooned over the prepared pork when served AND it can also be eaten with tortilla chips.


Spiced Pork Tenderloins:
2 pounds pork tenderloin, sliced 1/2 inch thick (have the butcher do this)
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon coriander (I didn't have any of this so didn't use it)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ginger
Coat both sides of the pork with the flour/spice mixture. This recipe can now go two ways. You can either grill the pork on your BBQ grill until no longer pink in the middle OR put it in a single layer in a 9 x 13 baking dish, cover with foil, and bake at 350 for 45-50 minutes until no longer pink in the middle. Remove the foil and broil till top of pork is crisp. Serve with Mango salsa over the top.

Both recipes are from www.delish.com and I tweaked the Mango salsa with a recipe from The Essential Mormon Cookbook.
