Hoisin & Honey Pork Ttenderloin

Categories: Pork

Prepared: 2010-03-18

ingredients:

• Cooking spray
• 1 pound pork tenderloin
• Salt & pepper
  SAUCE:
• 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  
• 2 – 3 green onions, chopped

Preparation:

• Preheat oven to 375F.
• Spray a large, oven-proof skillet with cooking spray and heat on medium high. When the pan is hot, add the meat (it should sizzle) and sear the bottom side. Season the top with salt and pepper, then turn the meat to sear the other side and season the new top side. Move the skillet to the oven for about 30 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center reads 150F or the color is ‘just barely past pink’.
• (If making the carrots, start now.)
• While the meat cooks, mix the sauce ingredients in a small pan and bring to a boil. Let it cook down just slightly, then keep warm on low heat.
• Slice the meat and transfer to plates. Drizzle with hot hoisin-honey sauce and sprinkle with green onion. Serve immediately.
