Pork tenderloins are an essential component in a busy cook's life because they represent a quick, easy to prepare, and delicious solution for a family meal that also qualifies for a respectable meal to serve to dinner guests. In this recipe, pork tenderloin is flavored in a marinade prepared with soy sauce, vinegar, honey, brown sugar, cinnamon, garlic and crystallized ginger. All of these flavors combine to form a richly aromatic and delicious meal. (I like to serve with mashed potatoes and string beans).
Serves 6
Ingredients
1 1 ½ to 2-pound pork tenderloin
¼ cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon crystallized ginger
Preparation
Combine the marinade ingredients in a measuring cup and whisk to combine. Pour over pork tenderloin in a plastic bag.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake for 45 minutes or until meat is 145 degrees F when measured with an instant-read thermometer. Allow meat to rest about 10 minutes before cutting into 2-inch serving pieces. Drizzle a small amount of the meat juices from cooking over each piece of meat.
Serve with your favorite potato and vegetable for a complete meal!
