Butterflied Korean Pork Tenderloin image

Pork tenderloin is lean and juicy when properly cooked but has a fairly mild flavor. Combine it with assertive seasonings like soy, ginger and garlic in a Korean-style marinade, and the results are bold and delicious. Time does not include marinating time.

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (1 -1 1/4 lb) pork tenderloin
1/2 cup soy sauce
4 green onions, sliced
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
2 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
1 teaspoon molasses
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted
1/4 cup green onion, diagonally sliced

Steps:

  • Make a long cut in center of each tenderloin running the length of the meat, stopping about 1/4 inch from bottom. Spread open; gently flatten with heel of your hand. Place each tenderloin between 2 sheets of plastic wrap; pound to 1/2-inch thickness.
  • Place tenderloin in 13 x 9-inch glass baking dish. Combine all remaining pork ingredients in small bowl; pour over pork, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate 16 to 24 hours, turning occasionally.
  • Heat grill. Remove tenderloin from marinade, shaking off excess; discard marinade. Grill, covered, over medium-high heat or coals 5 to 8 minutes or until pale pink in center, turning once. Remove pork. Cover loosely with foil; let stand 10 minutes.
