Pork

Asian Marinade for Pork Tenderloin

Honey. Ginger. Sesame. Soy Sauce, Garlic. Does life get much better than that? Yes it does - but you have to add the pork tenderloin!

1 teaspoon Sesame oil 2 tablespoons orange juice 1 Scallion - sliced ¼ cup soy sauce 1 tablespoon ginger - grated 1 tablespoon honey 1 tablespoon Sesame Seeds 2 cloves Garlic

Score meat with fork.

Mix ingredients in a bowl and pour over meat.

Cover and let sit for as long as possible (at least 1 hour).

Bake at 425 with the meat still in the marinade for approx. 30-45 min or until meat is done.

Meat can still be slightly pink when done. Don’t over-cook.

Check occasionally that the meat has not soaked up all of the marinade. If it is getting close, add some water.

The leftover marinade tastes great as a sauce on rice. If baking two tenderloins, double the recipe.
