Ingredients

1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed
1 cup fresh pineapple, cut into rings
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
8 small corn or flour tortillas
Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

Marinate the Pork: In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add the pork tenderloin and coat well. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Grill the Pineapple: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the pineapple rings on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until caramelized. Remove from the grill and set aside.
Grill the Pork: Place the marinated pork on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Assemble the Tacos: Warm the tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side. Slice the grilled pork and place it on the tortillas. Top with grilled pineapple and chopped cilantro.
Serve: Squeeze fresh lime juice over the tacos and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
