This easy roasted pork appetizer comes from Shirley Kula of San Diego, California. The ginger, soy sauce and sesame seeds give these truly tender tenderloins obvious Asian flair. Ingredients:
1/2 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce |
1/3 cup honey |
1/4 cup sherry or chicken broth |
1 tablespoon canola oil |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger |
2 pork tenderloins (1 pound each) |
sesame coating: |
2 tablespoons ground mustard |
3 tablespoons water |
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce |
1/4 cup sesame seeds, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the first six ingredients. Add pork; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
2. Drain and discard marinade. Place tenderloins on a rack in a shallow roasting pan lined with heavy-duty foil. Bake at 425° for 30-35 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Let stand for 5 minutes.
3. In a small bowl, combine the mustard, water and soy sauce; brush over meat. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Slice and serve warm or cold. Yield: 12 servings.
