ALL YOU DO
1

Mix all the marinade ingredients together and pour into a plastic food storage bag; add the tenderloins, turn to coat. Seal the bag and place it into a bowl and refrigerate. Let marinate for 2 to 8 hours, turning the bag occasionally.

2

Heat the outdoor BBQ to medium heat. Or, preheat the oven to 190 C (375 F).

3

Remove the tenderloins from the bag, saving the marinade.

4

Place the tenderloins on the grill and cook for about 15 minutes, turning at regular intervals, until the internal temperature reaches 70 C (160 F), slightly pink inside. Or, if using the oven, place the tenderloins on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, then turn the broiler on and broil for 3 minutes.

5

Remove the tenderloins from the heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Meanwhile, pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer.

6

Serve the cooked marinade as a sauce with the sliced pork for some extra spiciness. This tenderloin is delicious served over rice along with a sweet vegetable such as carrots, squash or corn niblets. Or for a simple & quick dish, serve the sliced pork directly over mesclun salad, with crusty bread on the side.
