Honey Glazed Pork Tenderloin With Fresh Peach Salsa - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Fresh Peach Salsa
    1 ripe freestone peach
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
    2 tablespoons minced red onions
    1 tablespoon honey (more if the peaches are not really sweet)
    1/2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
    1 lime, zest and juice of
    1 pinch coarse sea salt
    1 pinch fresh ground pepper
    Honey Glazed Pork Tenderloin
    1 pork tenderloin (about 1 pound)
    4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    1 garlic clove, minced
    1/2 teaspoon coarse ground sea salt, plus more for sprinkling
    1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
    2 tablespoons light local honey
    2 shallots, peeled and thinly sliced
Preparation
    For the salsa:
    Cut the peach in half. Remove the pit and dice the fruit. Place in a small bowl. Add the cilantro, onion, honey, oil, lime zest and juice, salt and pepper. Stir gently and allow to sit, covered.
    For the pork:
    Remove excess fat and the silver skin from the tenderloin. Put the tenderloin in shallow bowl large enough to accommodate it. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and sprinkle with the garlic, salt and pepper. Drizzle with the honey. Let sit for 30 minutes.
    Prepare a grill to medium-high heat. Put the marinated pork on the grill and cook, about 5 minutes. Shift the pork 90 degrees and grill for 5 more minutes. Flip it over and repeat. Cook until the internal temperature is 145 degrees F. Remove from the grill and let sit for 5 minutes.
    Place the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a saute pan. Add the shallots when the oil starts to shimmer. Saute until crispy, and then drain on a paper towel. Sprinkle with salt.
    Slice the pork and serve with the shallots and salsa.
