Ingredients

• 1 pound Pork tenderloin
• 3 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
• 2 tablespoons Low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
• 2 stalks Green onions (optional, for garnish)
• 1 unit (as needed) Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Trim any excess fat or silver skin from the pork tenderloin and pat it dry with paper towels.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, low-sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated fresh ginger, honey, and red pepper flakes to create the marinade.

Step 3

Place the pork tenderloin in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it, ensuring the pork is well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 8 hours for deeper flavor.

Step 4

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Lightly coat the grill grates with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Remove the pork from the marinade and shake off any excess. Set the leftover marinade aside in a small saucepan.

Step 6

Grill the pork tenderloin for about 8-10 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F when checked with a meat thermometer. Turn occasionally to ensure even cooking and a nice char on the outside.

Step 7

While the pork is grilling, bring the reserved marinade to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, to use as a glaze or sauce.

Step 8

Remove the pork from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute. Slice the pork into medallions and brush with the simmered glaze, if desired.

Step 9

Garnish with thinly sliced green onions for added freshness and serve immediately. Pair with steamed vegetables or a light salad for a complete low-fat meal.
