Teriyaki Grilled Pork Tenderloin

Teriyaki Grilled Pork Tenderloin

Ingredients:

2 pork tenderloins (about 1½–2 lbs total)

Salt and black pepper, to taste

1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for grilling)

For the Teriyaki Marinade:

½ cup soy sauce

¼ cup brown sugar

2 tablespoons honey

¼ cup rice vinegar

1 tablespoon sesame oil

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

1 tablespoon cornstarch + 2 tablespoons water (for thickening, optional)

Directions:

In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger to make the marinade. Reserve ¼ cup for glaze.

Place pork tenderloins in a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour remaining marinade over pork. Marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

Preheat grill to medium-high. Remove pork from marinade and pat dry. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

Brush grill grates with oil. Grill pork for 15–20 minutes, turning occasionally, until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

While pork grills, bring reserved marinade to a boil in a small saucepan. Mix cornstarch with water, add to the marinade, and simmer until thickened for a glaze.

Let pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Drizzle with glaze and serve.
