This is from the Southern Living 2000 Annual Recipes I am picking my way through. I have a George Foreman grill with removable plates that perhaps you have heard me rave about, and so I knew that even if the weather did not permit Stevie to grill this outside, I could still make it. This recipe has sesame oil in it, which I bought a while ago for a recipe and am really enjoying using. It has quite a strong flavor, and very yummy. And a very light texture. Yum.
Honey-Grilled Tenderloin
1 1/2 lbs pork tenderloin
1/4 cup lite soy sauce (I used regular)
5 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp ground ginger
2 tbsp brown sugar
3 tbsp honey
2 tsp sesame oil
Make a lengthwise cut down the center of the tenderloin(s) to within 1/4 inch of opposite side; press to open. Combine soy sauce, garlic, and ginger in a shallow dish. Add meat. Cover and chill 3 hours, turning meat occasionally. Stir together brown sugar, honey, and sesame oil. Grill meat, covered with grill lid, over med-high heat 20 minutes, or until 160 degrees, turning occasionally and basting with honey mixture. 6 servings.
I did end up making this inside. It smelled great and tasted great. We had this with a potato salad recipe that I found years ago that does not contain my nemesis, mayo (blech). A very yummy meal.
