Easy, delicious, and fast. Grilled pork tenderloin is a true family staple in our house. It’s one of those dishes that never fails, especially in the summer when the grill is already hot and dinner needs to come together without fuss. It pairs beautifully with my ever popular Romaine and Bell Pepper Salad or my Easy Steamed Broccoli with Creamy Homemade Vinaigrette. It’s the kind of effortless recipe that becomes a tradition before you even realize it.
Ingredients
- 1 whole pork tenderloin about 1 lb, trimmed
- olive oil to drizzle
- kosher salt and ground black pepper
Instructions
Gather all ingredients before starting recipe.
- An hour before grilling, trim 1 whole pork tenderloin of fat and silver skin and drizzle olive oil on both sides of the tenderloin, then season with kosher salt and ground black pepper.

- Pre heat grill on high. Place tenderloin on grill and sear for about 10 minutes. The tenderloin should have nice grill marks. If the tenderloin is sticking to the grill when you try to flip, leave for an extra 2-3 minutes and then try to turn. Sear second side for another 6-8 minutes.

- Remove from grill and allow to rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.
