Marcia Smart's Honey Hoisin Pork Tenderloin

recette

• Étape 1
  Clean & thinly slice the green onions.
• Étape 2
  Peel & mince the garlic.
• Étape 3
  In a small bowl, combine the sliced green onions, hoisin, soy sauce, honey, water & minced garlic. Pour half the marinade into a large plastic bag or container. Cover & refrigerate the bowl with the remaining marinade.
• Étape 4
  Salt the pork, add to the bag & seal. Marinate for at least 30 min at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator, turning the bag occasionally.
• Étape 5
  Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high. Once it’s hot, brush down & oil the grates. (It’s much easier to clean the grill grates once they’ve heated & any residual “stuff” has charred. To oil the grill, use avocado oil on a paper towel or old kitchen towel & quickly wipe down the grates.)
• Étape 6
  Remove pork from the bag & use a paper towel to pat it dry; discard the marinade from the bag. Grill the pork for 15-20 min, rotating every couple min to sear all sides, until an instant-read thermometer registers 145 F°. Don’t worry if the interior is a little pink as long as you’ve checked the temperature.
• Étape 7
  Transfer the meat to a cutting board & let it rest for 5 min, tented with foil to keep warm.
• Étape 8
  Meanwhile, warm the reserved marinade in the microwave for 30-40 sec or in a small pot on the stove.
• Étape 9
  Slice the meat & arrange it on a large plate or platter. Drizzle it with the warm marinade & sprinkle with thinly sliced green onions (optional) & sesame seeds, if you have any. Serve with warm, fluffy rice. Enjoy!
