Expert Tips

Pork tenderloin is a lean piece of pork cut from the loin. Because this cut contains little fat to moisten it during cooking, pork tenderloin benefits from a glaze or marinade.

To reduce spiciness, use only 1 chipotle chile and omit the adobo sauce.

To broil pork tenderloins, place on broiler pan; broil 4 to 6 inches from heat using times above as a guide, turning occasionally and brushing with taco sauce mixture during last 10 minutes of cooking time.
