Honey Lime Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Citrus Salsa

1 pork tenderloin (about 1 lb.)

2 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

1 1/2 teaspoons finely shredded lime zest

1/3 cup fresh lime juice (from about 3 limes)

1/4 cup honey

1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided

1 small Meyer lemon, cut in half horizontally, ends trimmed

Peeled segments from 4 pink grapefruits, drained

Peeled segments from 2 navel oranges, drained

1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves

1/4 cup chopped roasted, unsalted pistachios

Step 1

Preheat a grill for medium heat (350° to 450°). Rub pork with 1/2 tsp. oil. In a bowl, whisk together zest, juice, honey, and 3/4 tsp. salt and divide between 2 bowls.

Step 2

Grill lemon, turning occasionally, until very soft, about 8 minutes, and grill pork, turning occasionally and brushing with half the lime glaze, until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part reaches 145°, about 20 minutes.

Step 3

Let lemon cool, remove seeds and central white core, and chop finely. Transfer pork to a platter, tent with foil, and let rest about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, boil remaining glaze in a small saucepan, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Set aside.

Step 4

In a bowl, combine remaining 2 tsp. oil, grapefruits, oranges, thyme, remaining 1/2 tsp. salt, chopped lemon, and pistachios.

Step 5

Slice pork, brush with thickened glaze, and serve with citrus salsa.
