Tips:

  • For a more flavorful tenderloin, marinate it in the spiced yogurt mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • To ensure that the tenderloin is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that it has reached an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check the doneness of the tenderloin by cutting into it. The meat should be cooked through, but still slightly pink in the center.
  • To make the crostini, use a sturdy bread that can hold up to the weight of the tenderloin and toppings. A baguette or ciabatta bread works well.
  • Brush the crostini with olive oil before toasting them. This will help them to crisp up and prevent them from becoming too dry.
  • Top the crostini with the tenderloin, arugula, and your favorite toppings. A few suggested toppings include crumbled feta cheese, diced tomatoes, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Spiced Pork Tenderloin Crostini is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. The tenderloin is marinated in a flavorful yogurt mixture and then grilled to perfection.
