Brined Pork Tenderloin With Plum And Jicama Relish
- 8 cups cold water
- 1/2 cup kosher salt
- 2 (1-pound) pork tenderloins, trimmed
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
- 1 1/2 cups diced plums (3/4 pound)
- 3/4 cup finely chopped peeled jicama
- 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
- 2 teaspoons grated lime rind
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 serrano chile, seeded and chopped
- Parsley sprigs (optional)
- Combine 8 cups cold water and 1/2 cup salt in a 13 x 9-inch glass or ceramic baking dish, stirring until salt dissolves. Add pork to brine; let stand at room temperature 1 hour.
- Prepare grill to medium-high heat.
- Drain pork; pat dry. Brush pork with oil; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place pork on grill rack; grill 15 minutes or until a thermometer registers 155u0b0 (slightly pink), turning pork occasionally. Remove pork from grill; let stand 5 minutes. Cut across the grain into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
- Combine remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper, plums, and next 7 ingredients (through chile); toss gently to combine. Serve relish with pork. Garnish with parsley sprigs, if desired.
