Chili Rubbed Pork with Mango Salsa w/ New Potatoes

Dinner Tonight: Chili Rubbed Pork with Mango Salsa w/ New Potatoes




For Breakfast I had an Egg Beater's Egg White Scrambled Egg, 2 Jennie - O Turkey Breakfast

Sausage Links, 2 slices of Toasted Aunt Millie's Whole Grain Bread, and a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Love a good Breakfast! After my morning workout it was house cleaning day. Ran the vacuum and dusted. Swept up and cleaned outside on the deck and driveway, getting a lot of leaves this year. After cleaning got the cart out for a while to enjoy another beautiful Fall Day, sunny and 70 degrees! Clouds and rain moving in though overnight and Saturday, much needed rain. For dinner tonight anew recipe, I prepare a Chili Rubbed Pork with Mango Salsa w/ New Potatoes.
   




I had come across this recipe from a McCormick Recipe email and had been wanting to try for some
time, like dinner tonight! To make this I'll need the following; 1 package McCormick® Chili Seasoning Mix, 1 tablespoon packed Splenda Brown Sugar, 1 large ripe Mango (peeled) -  seeded and finely chopped (1 cup), 1/3 cup finely chopped Red Onion, 2 tablespoons Orange Juice, 1 tablespoon chopped Cilantro, 2 Pork Tenderloins (about 1 pound each), and 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil. The ingredients of one delicious Pork Tenderloin! I used Splenda Brown Sugar instead of the regular Brown Sugar and I also used the McCormick® Chili Seasoning Mix instead of the Gluten-Free McCormick® Chili Seasoning Mix (Kroger was out of stock of it). The original recipe and web link is at the end of the post.




To prepare the dish I mixed the Seasoning Mix and Sugar in small bowl. For the Mango Salsa, mixed
the Mango, Onion, Orange Juice, Cilantro and 1 teaspoon of the Seasoning Mixture in medium bowl. Covered and refrigerated until ready to serve.

I then brushed the Pork Tenderloins with Oil. Coated evenly with remaining seasoning mixture. Refrigerated for 1 hour, for extra flavor.

To prepare it preheat the oven to 375°.  Add Pork to pan; cook 4 minutes, browning on all sides. Bake at 375° for 15 minutes or until a thermometer registers 145° (slightly pink), turning after 7 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. I use this cooking method when I prepare my Cumin Spiced Pork Tenderloin and it always comes out perfect. The Tenderloin came moist and delicious! Love the McCormick® Chili Seasoning Mix along with Brown Sugar, nice crust and perfect flavor. A definite "Keeper Recipe".




For a side I heated up a can of Del Monte Whole New Potatoes, just emptied the contents of the can
into a sauce pan and heated on medium heat until heated through. I also had a slice of Aunt Millie's Whole Grain Bread. For dessert later a Healthy Choice Dark Fudge Swirl Frozen Greek Yogurt.
