    List of Ingredients




    Grilled Pork Tenderloin & Apricot Salad


    1 pound pork tenderloin , trimmed
    1/2 teaspoon salt , divided
    1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper , plus more to taste
    3 tablespoons apricot preserves , divided
    4 ripe but firm fresh apricots or nectarines, halved and pitted
    2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
    2 tablespoons minced shallot
    2 tablespoons canola oil
    1 4- to 5-ounce bag watercress or baby arugula (about 8 cups)

    Recipe




    1: Preheat grill to high.

    2: Sprinkle pork with 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. Oil the grill rack (see Tip). Grill the pork, turning occasionally, for 10 minutes. Brush the pork with 2 tablespoons preserves and continue grilling until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F, 2 to 5 minutes more. Grill apricot (or nectarine) halves on the coolest part of the grill, turning occasionally, until tender and marked, about 4 minutes. Transfer the pork and apricots to a clean cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.

    3: Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 1 tablespoon preserves, vinegar, shallot, oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste in a large bowl. Cut the fruit into wedges and add to the dressing along with watercress (or arugula); toss to coat. Thinly slice the pork. Serve the salad with the sliced pork.
