Ingredients

2 cans (15 ounces each) black-eyed peas (preferably no salt added), drained and rinsed

1 avocado, halved, pitted, peeled, and diced medium

2 scallions, thinly sliced

3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

Coarse salt and ground pepper

12 ounces pork tenderloin, excess fat and silver skin removed

1 teaspoon olive oil

Preparation

Heat broiler, with rack in top position. In a medium bowl, combine black-eyed peas, avocado, scallions, parsley, and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.

Rub pork with oil and season with salt and pepper. Place on a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil. Cook 10 to 12 minutes for medium, turning frequently (an instant-read thermometer should read 145 when inserted in center of pork). Let rest 10 minutes. Thinly slice pork and serve with salad and any cooking juices from sheet.
