Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Pork tenderloin
- 3 tbsp Hoisin sauce
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Ginger, grated
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 2 stalks Green onions, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a small bowl, whisk together hoisin sauce, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil to create the glaze.
Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels and season evenly with salt and black pepper.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloin on all sides, about 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
Remove the skillet from heat and brush the pork tenderloin generously with the prepared glaze.
Transfer the skillet (or place the pork tenderloin onto the prepared baking sheet) to the preheated oven. Roast for 18-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).
During the last 5 minutes of cooking, brush the tenderloin with more glaze for a shiny, flavorful coating.
Once cooked, remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing to retain its juices.
Slice the pork into medallions and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
