PHASE 2
PHASE 1(without salsa)

Sweet and tangy peach-lime salsa, flavored with minced red onion and garden-fresh mint, brings beautiful color and exceptional taste to this simple grilled pork dish.

2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1½ pounds pork tenderloin
2 large peaches, peeled and cut into ½-inch pieces
1 small red onion, minced
¼ cup finely chopped fresh mint
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
¼ teaspoon salt

In a small bowl, combine garlic, oil, and pepper to form a rough paste. Place pork in a 9- by 13-inch glass baking dish and coat with garlic paste; let stand at room temperature for 10 minutes.

While pork is standing, in another small bowl combine peaches, onion, mint, lime juice, and salt.

Lightly coat a grill or grill pan with cooking spray and heat to medium-high. Grill pork 12 to 14 minutes per side, or until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 150ºF to 155ºF. Transfer pork to a cutting board and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes.

Slice pork into ½-inch-thick slices and serve warm with peach-lime salsa.
