Asian Barbecue Pork
Ingredients
1 teriyaki-flavored pork tenderloin (1.15 lb)
aluminum foil (optional)
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon garlic paste
1 tablespoon ginger spice paste
1/2 cup pre-sliced green onions, divided
2 tablespoons water
1 (7.25-ounce) jar hoisin sauce
Steps
1. Preheat grill. Cut pork diagonally into eight 1-inch-thick slices; place on hot grill (wash hands); close lid (or cover loosely with foil). Cook 4-5 minutes on each side or until internal temperature reaches 160°F. Use a meat thermometer to accurately ensure doneness.
2. Meanwhile in medium saucepan, combine oil, garlic paste, ginger paste, and 1/4 cup of the onions. Cook on medium-high 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until onions are tender.
3. Stir in remaining ingredients, including remaining 1/4 cup onions, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer 3-5 minutes. Serve sauce over pork.
(Note: If watching sodium intake, serve only half of sauce over pork to reduce sodium in each serving by about 400mg.)
