Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean pork tenderloin, use one whole loin
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 medium garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 tablespoons rosemary, fresh
  • 1/2 teaspoon table salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 cups arugula
  • 1/2 cup fat-free red wine vinaigrette

Method

  • Prepare grill for medium-hot indirect cooking, or preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Place pork on a large sheet of plastic wrap.
  • In a small bowl, mix together oil, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper, crushing rosemary slightly with a spoon as you mix; spread mixture over pork, covering entire surface.
  • Wrap loin tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour (and up to overnight).
  • Remove plastic wrap and place pork on grill.
  • Grill outdoors over indirect heat, turning occasionally, until a meat thermometer inserted in center reads 160°F, about 25 minutes.
  • Or indoors, place tenderloin in a shallow roasting pan and roast until internal temperature reaches 160°F, about 20 minutes.
  • (Note: Pork loin can be pink and juicy inside and be fully cooked, but it is important that the internal temperature be at least 160°F.).
  • Remove pork from grill or oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  • Toss arugula with vinaigrette and serve with pork.
  • 5 Points yields about 3 ounces of pork and 1 cup of arugula per serving.
