Grapefruit Thyme Pork Tenderloin

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Citrus season is here! I was able to get my hands on a ton of local grapefruit and have been developing a ton of grapefruit recipes from them. It’s been so much fun! This recipe is probably my favorite as it is an unexpected combination and it is absolutely delicious.

Over the past year I have been experiments with herbs I am less familiar with. It’s been a lot of fun and I have enjoyed the challenge of developing recipes that use them. Thyme is one of the herbs I have used sparingly in the past and am now looking to use more often.

I decided to use grapefruit as a marinade and add more into the pan while cooking. I was pleasantly surprised at how rich the flavor was after cooking. It was not the least bit tart and wasn’t overly sweet either, but it was rich and, honestly, decadent in my opinion. I decided to place in on a bed of arugula (rocket) lettuce and add some of the juice and grapefruits from the pan as dressing. It was ah-mazing.

Side note: Arugula pairs really well with fresh grapefruit I found. I made a salad using leftover arugula with some veggies and just fresh squeezed grapefruit juice as dressing then added extra virgin olive oil. It was divine.

If you aren’t a salad person I think this would pair well with roasted winter squash or cauliflower.

This recipe is gluten free, dairy free, nut free, and paleo.

Hi! Lots of new faces around here so I thought I w Hi! Lots of new faces around here so I thought I would introduce myself.

I'm Marian. Integrative Nutrition Health Coach who specializes in helping people reach their best health despite any complex health condition.

I love food. Food is a social and emotional experience that everyone can enjoy no matter what they have going on when I'm on their team.

Along with loving food and helping people eat, I love my family. Blended family with 4 kids keeps life crazy busy and I wouldn't have it any other way.

We are pretty big fans of camping, shooting, traveling off the beaten path in our land cruiser, and playing music.

I also enjoy lounging by the pool with my friends, hiking, and thrift shopping. 

Welcome! I love interacting with you so I hope you'll leave comments and PM often!
