2 15-ounce pork tenderloins |
2 tablespoons finely chopped canned chipotle chiles plus 1 tablespoon adobo sauce |
1/3 cup plain whole-milk yogurt |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 tablespoon cumin seeds |

Grill tenderloins, brushing occasionally with remaining yogurt sauce, until just cooked through and thermometer inserted into thickest part of meat registers 145°F, about 10 minutes per side. Transfer tenderloins to platter. Let stand 5 minutes, then cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Serve tenderloins with guacamole.
