Ingredients

• 2 pieces (about 1 pound each) Pork tenderloin
• 0.5 cup Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon Sriracha or chili garlic paste
• 2 tablespoons Green onions, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional, for extra heat)

Directions

Step 1

1. Trim any silver skin or excess fat from the pork tenderloins and set aside.

Step 2

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, sriracha, chopped green onions, black pepper, and red chili flakes (if using).

Step 3

3. Place the pork tenderloins in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, and pour the marinade over the meat, ensuring that each piece is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap.

Step 4

4. Marinate the pork in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight, for maximum flavor infusion.

Step 5

5. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 6

6. Remove the pork tenderloins from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Reserve the remaining marinade for basting (optional).

Step 7

7. Place the pork on the grill and cook for about 20-25 minutes, turning every 5-7 minutes to ensure even cooking. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness; the internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).

Step 8

8. If desired, baste the pork with the reserved marinade during the last few minutes of grilling to enhance the flavor. Ensure the marinade comes to a boil if reused to kill any bacteria.

Step 9

9. Once cooked, transfer the pork tenderloins to a clean plate or cutting board and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 10

10. Slice the pork into medallions, garnish with additional chopped green onions if desired, and serve hot with your favorite side dishes.
