"Found this super easy great tasting pork tenderloin recipe in the recipe section of one of our local newspapers - featuring recipes for Canadian pork. I was surprised to find pork tenderloin is as lean as boneless, skinless chicken breasts. I like serving with rice and vegetables or serve with a mixed green salad for a low carb meal. A salad of mixed baby greens and spinach with homemade salad dressing is my favorite when I make tenderloins."

Quick and easy, and came out good. We used an olive oil and balsamic dressing. Bet this would work well with fish and chicken too!

Lives up to it's name-EASY. I used zesty Italian and solved the "pale" problem by preheating my cast iron grill pan in the oven and cooking the pork on it, which gave it some nice color. Will be trying other dressings in the future. I think an Asian sesame/ginger dressing would be really good.

Easy is right - I used zesty Italian dressing. Marinated it overnight and the flavour came right through the meat. It didn't look so pretty, very pale but it sure tasted good. Next time I think I'll try a balsamic dressing. I cut the recipe back to 1/2 tenderloin. Served with boiled nugget potatoes, new carrots & Peas.
