Chipotle Pork Loin With Blueberry–Kiwi Salsa

Preparation

1. Step 1

   To grill the pork loin, preheat a grill over high heat, or to roast, preheat the oven to 400ºF.

   Step 2

   Combine the kiwis, blueberries, cilantro onion, and vinegar in a large bowl. Add 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and toss well. Set the salsa aside.

   Step 3

   Place the paprika or chipotle chile powder on a plate along with the turmeric, cumin, the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt, and the black pepper. Roll the pork loin in the spice mixture to coat. Drizzle the pork with the oil.

2. To grill:

   Step 4

   Grease the grill with grapeseed oil. Adjust the grill flame setting to medium to medium-low.

   Step 5

   Place the loin on the grill and cook, turning often, until no longer translucent inside and cooked through, or until it registers 145ºF on an instant-read thermometer, 20–25 minutes. Let the loin rest for 5 minutes before slicing, then serve with the salsa.

3. To roast:

   Step 6

   Place the pork in a 7-by-11–inch baking dish and roast on the lower rack, uncovered, for 35–40 minutes until cooked through and no longer pink in the center, and it registers 145ºF on an instant-read thermometer. Let the loin rest for 5 minutes before slicing, then serve with the salsa.
