Description
Tender, juicy and an excellent vehicle for the flavor-bomb of Piquant Post Peri Peri, this Portuguese Pork Tenderloin is the perfect recipe for highlighting the deeply delicious pork dishes found throughout Portugal. All at once smoky, savory, tangy and fruity, Peri Peri infuses everything it touches with outstanding flavor without overwhelming it. It’s commonly used as a marinade for chicken, but works just as well with pork, steak, fish and tofu, and you might even see it bottled as a hot sauce or sprinkled on chips and fries. Given its border with a culinary powerhouse known for its incredible jamón culture, Portugal is often eclipsed by Spain when it comes to pork dishes and we are determined to change that. Not only does Portugal put the same care as their neighbors into raising their pigs, but the vast array of spices found in Portuguese gastronomy makes for an endless supply of remarkable dishes. To truly highlight these bold flavors, we marinate the pork tenderloin in Peri Peri for a minimum of 30 minutes before browning the meat and roasting it in the oven. The tenderloin is infused with a cacophony of flavors reminiscent of the Portuguese countryside and served with crispy roasted potatoes for the full effect. Deeply flavorful, incredibly simple to make, and very forgiving, this Peri Peri pork tenderloin is a great recipe to have in your arsenal.
