Ingredients

Seasoned Butter

3 tablespoons
Land O Lakes® Butter, melted
3 tablespoons
finely chopped green onions
1 1/2 teaspoons
Caribbean jerk seasoning
1 teaspoon
finely chopped fresh garlic
1 teaspoon
freshly grated lime zest

Pork

1 (18- to 20-ounce)
pork tenderloin

Compote

4
ripe plums, pitted, each cut into 8 pieces
3 tablespoons
orange or apple juice
2 tablespoons
firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon
ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon
Land O Lakes® Butter

Directions

  1. Heat gas grill on medium or charcoal grill until coals are ash white.
  2. Combine all seasoned butter ingredients in small bowl; set aside.
  3. Place pork onto grill; brush generously with seasoned butter. Grill, turning occasionally and brushing with seasoned butter, 25-30 minutes or until internal temperature of pork reaches at least 145°F.
  4. Combine plums, orange juice, sugar and cinnamon in medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat 15-20 minutes or until plums are very tender and jam-like. Stir in 1 tablespoon butter.
  5. Serve sliced tenderloin with warm plum compote.

Recipe Tips

- The seasoned butter can be made up to 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate until grilling time. Reheat the seasoned butter in the microwave just until melted.

- Dark-skinned Santa Rosa plums make the nicest sauce—they are especially sweet and tender when ripe.
