160 calories/serving

Ingredients

1/4 cup soy sauce 65 mL
1/4 cup sherry [optional] 65 mL
1 tbsp gingerroot, grated 14 g
1 clove garlic, minced
1 pork tenderloin 300 g
1/2 tsp Dijon mustard 3 g
1/3 cup orange juice 85 mL

Before you start

The tenderloins can be cooked using either a broiler in the oven or an outdoor grill.

Method

Marinate

  1. In a plastic bag, add all the ingredients of the marinade: soy sauce, sherry (optional), grated ginger and minced garlic. Mix well, then add the pork tenderloins, turning them to coat well. Close the bag tightly. Chill in a refrigerator overnight or up to 24 h.

Broil or outdoor grill

  1. Preheat the broiler. Drain the tenderloins and put them on the rack of a broiler pan, under the broiler 10 cm from the heat for about 8 min per side. In a small bowl, mix the mustard with the orange juice. Use this mixture to brush the tenderloins half-way through the cooking.
  2. Alternatively, on an outdoor grill, drain the tenderloins and place them on a very hot grill. Cook for about 15-20 min, depending on their size, brushing them with the orange and mustard mixture.
  3. Serve.

Tenderloin turned out excellent, very tender and juicy. Marinade and glaze work together with the flavor of the pork very well. Be certain to take the internal temperature before you cut it open though, as the recipe is very specific to the size and cut of the tenderloin. Internal temp. of pork is 155 - 160 degrees fahrenheit.

My tenderloin turned out good, but I wish the instructions were written a bit better. I used one large porkloin that needed double the time. It would be helpful if the recipe included the internal temperature for doneness. Also, I would like if the recipe divided the marinade ingredients from the glaze, I made the mistake of adding the dijon to the marinade instead. Still - the pork was juicy and flavourful. Thanks!

Used the marinate with chicken instead and what a marinate... makes the chicken very soft and tender and I assume does the same thing for the pork..
