Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pd trimmed pork tenderloin
1 inch piece peeled ginger root sliced into coins
3 garlic cloves peeled
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tsp brown sugar
1/3 cup minced green onions
1/4 minced cilantro
2 tbsp seasoned rice wine vinegar
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp sesame oil

Steps:

Put the ginger and garlic into a mini-chopper or food processor. Pulse until finely chopped. Remove to a bowl. Add the soy sauce, brown sugar, green onions, cilantro, seasoned rice wine vinegar, olive oil, sesame oil. Stir to combine. Remove and reserve (for basting) 1/4 cup of this marinade. 2 Place pork tenderloin into a marinating bag or bowl and cover with the remaining marinade. Marinate at room temp for an hour, while you prepare your grill. 3 Prepare your grill for both direct and indirect heat. When your grill is ready (you should be able to hold your hand an inch above the grill grates on the hot side for only one second), remove the tenderloin from the marinade and brush the tenderloin with olive oil. 4 Place tenderloin on grill on direct high heat. After the tenderloin sears on one side, turn it to sear on another side. Keep turning until the tenderloin has been nicely browned on all sides. Baste the tenderloin with reserved marinade while you grill it. u
