For best flavor, use fresh citrus juice and good-quality tequila. If you don't have a grill, you can roast the pork in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Serve with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.

01 Step
Recipe View Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together the lime juice, tequila, orange juice, cilantro, green chiles, chili powder, honey, garlic, salt, and pepper. (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View Marinate the Pork: Place the pork tenderloins in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring it is evenly coated. Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight. (8-24 hours)
03 Step
Recipe View Preheat the Grill: When ready to cook, preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking. (10 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View Grill the Pork: Remove the tenderloins from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Discard the used marinade. Place the tenderloins on the preheated grill. (2 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View Cook to Perfection: Grill the pork, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F (63°C). This should take approximately 15-20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the tenderloins and the heat of your grill. (15-20 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View Rest and Serve: Remove the pork from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful final product. (5-10 minutes)
