Pork Tenderloin with Spicy Soy Sauce

June 6, 2011 by Jaida Leave a Comment

First, let me apologize that I’ve been on an unintended hiatus for a few days. Sometimes life gets in the way, and cooking just doesn’t fit into the schedule. My waistline is more upset about it than you are, I  promise 🙂 But, I’m back in action now, and will be cooking and posting my little heart out!
I only have a few go-to pork tenderloin recipes, and this one has recently been added to that list. It is really easy to make, and tastes great! It pairs nicely with mashed potatoes and sweet corn.
 
Pork Tenderloin with Spicy Soy Sauce
Modified from Eating Well


Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 large clove garlic, peeled and finely grated or minced
  • 1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger
  • dash ground red pepper
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat and cut into 1-inch-thick medallions

Preparation

  1. Whisk soy sauce and sugar in a medium bowl until the sugar is completely dissolved. Stir in garlic, ginger, red pepper and oil.
  2. Place pork in a resealable plastic bag. Add the marinade and seal the bag, squeezing air out. Turn the bag to coat the medallions. Refrigerate for 2 hours, turning the bag once to redistribute the marinade.
  3. Pour contents of bag into a skillet and cook over medium-high heat 3-5 minutes per side until cooked through.

Welcome!

As a busy wife and mom who also works a full time job, I try to have dinner done in 30 minutes or less so I can spend more of my evenings with my hubby and baby girl, so what you will find here are recipes that are mostly-healthy, quick and easy. Of course I have desserts, less healthy and more time-intensive meals as well (everything in moderation!), but all-in-all, you can count on weeknight friendly options, all made with love and dished up with a side of life, love, and family!
