Tenderloin may be a little finicky, therein you are doing need to concentrate so you don’t overcook it. There’s not much margin for error with this cut.

The tenderloin is first marinated during a soy , ginger, and vegetable oil marinade. Then you sear it on the recent side of the grill and finish it on the cool side.

Drizzle with a touch reserved marinade to serve! Great with rice and greens.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 to 1 1/4 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed of silver-skin
• 1 inch piece peeled ginger root, sliced into coins
• 3 cloves garlic, peeled
• 1/4 cup soy sauce (use gluten-free soy sauce if cooking gluten-free)
• 2 teaspoons brown sugar
• 1/3 cup minced green onions
• 1/4 cup minced cilantro (including tender stems)
• 2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Make the marinade: Put the ginger and garlic into a mini-chopper or food processor. Pulse until finely chopped. Remove to a bowl. Add the soy sauce, brown sugar, green onions, cilantro, seasoned rice wine vinegar, olive oil, sesame oil. Stir to combine.
2. Remove and reserve (for basting) 1/4 cup of this marinade.
3. Marinate the pork tenderloin: Place pork tenderloin into a marinating bag or bowl and cover with the remaining marinade. Marinate at room temp for an hour, while you prepare your grill.
4. Prepare the grill: Prepare your grill for both direct and indirect heat. When your grill is ready (you should be able to hold your hand an inch above the grill grates on the hot side for only one second), remove the tenderloin from the marinade and brush the tenderloin with olive oil.
