Grilled Pork Caesar Salad

Ingredients
1 teriyaki pork tenderloin (about 1 1/4 lbs.)
2 whole romaine hearts (rinsed)
cooking spray
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup Caesar salad croutons
1 cup grape tomatoes (rinsed)
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese blend
1/2 cup Caesar salad dressing

Steps
  1. Preheat grill. Place pork tenderloin on heated grill, using tongs; close lid (or cover loosely with foil) and grill 20–25 minutes, turning often, until internal temperature reaches 160°F (for medium). Use meat thermometer to accurately ensure doneness. (Grills vary widely; adjust time as needed.)
  2. While pork grills, trim core ends from romaine hearts and discard; cut in half lengthwise and pat dry. Coat cut sides with cooking spray; season with salt and pepper.
  3. Remove pork from grill and let stand 5–10 minutes before slicing. While pork stands, place romaine hearts, cut side down, on grill. Grill 1–2 minutes or just until edges wilt slightly. Place each romaine heart, with grilled side up, on salad plate.
  4. Cut pork diagonally into very thin slices and arrange over romaine. Add croutons, tomatoes, and cheese; drizzle with dressing and serve.
