  • 2 whole fresh lemons (juice and zest)
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • fresh herbs (for garnish) e.g., parsley or thyme
Green Beans
  • 1 cup fresh green beans
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Equipment

  • grill
  • mixing bowl
  • resealable bag

Method
 

Marinade and Grill
  1. In a bowl, whisk together lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  2. Place the pork tenderloin in a resealable bag and pour the marinade over it. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
  3. Heat your grill to medium-high (400°F/200°C), ensuring grates are clean and lightly oiled.
  4. Remove the pork from marinade (discard leftover marinade). Grill for 6-8 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  5. Toss green beans with olive oil, salt, and pepper. During the last few minutes of grilling, place them on indirect heat until tender yet crisp (about 5-7 minutes).
  6. Let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing into medallions. Plate with charred green beans and garnish with fresh herbs.
