Pork Tenderloin/ Chicken and Citrus Salad

In summary, the recommended cooking time for pork tenderloin is 20 minutes per pound at 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Chicken can be substituted for pork tenderloin in the recipe, but the cooking time should be adjusted and a meat thermometer should be used to ensure safe consumption. To marinate the pork tenderloin, mix desired ingredients and let it marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. The citrus salad can be made ahead of time, but should be dressed right before serving. Recommended side dishes to serve with this dish include roasted vegetables, rice, or quinoa, as well as fresh bread or rolls to soak up extra dressing from the salad.

I made this the other night for dinner..... I made the kid friendly verison..... well I then the serrano pepper that I had was supper duper hot that my DH wasnt' able to eat it..... And I making it for a show tonight... does anyone have any suggestions what kinda peper I could use that isnt' so hot... I thought about using a bell pepper but I am not sure if that would taste right or not!!
 
Use the core & more to remove as much of the seeds and veins (white stuff) as possible. That should tame it down a little.

Or just use less.

I was using a paring knife to get the seeds out.. blond moment I didnt' think about using the core and more to remove them too.... I will take any other suggestions.. My DH said use a Jappino (sp) rather than the Serrano....hmmm not sure I am not a pepper person at all....
 
Watch the new DVD where Chef Chris demos the Core & More. He uses it on peppers to get the veins and seeds out.
 
A jalepeno is milder than a serrano. I would suggest a pablano, a bit spicier than a bell pepper, but still really mild. They kind of look like small bell peppers.
