Prepare the marinade
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the bowl. Zest and juice one lime, and add it to the marinade. Whisk to combine.
Marinate the pork
Place the pork tenderloin in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the pork, making sure it's evenly coated. Cover the dish or seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
Prepare the toppings
While the pork is marinating, prepare the toppings. Cut the pineapple into 1/2-inch thick rings. Thinly slice the red onion. Roughly chop the cilantro leaves. Cut the remaining lime into wedges.
Grill the pork and pineapple
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the pork from the marinade and discard the excess marinade. Grill the pork for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Grill the pineapple rings for 2-3 minutes per side, or until lightly charred.
Let the pork rest and slice
Remove the pork from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice the pork into 1/2-inch thick pieces.
Warm the tortillas
Wrap the corn tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until soft and pliable.
Assemble the tacos
Divide the sliced pork, grilled pineapple, sliced red onion, and chopped cilantro evenly among the warm tortillas. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
