Delicious Hawaiian Pork Tenderloin Marinade
This mouthwatering marinade is designed to infuse the pork tenderloin with sweet and savory notes, making each bite a delightful experience.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup pineapple juice
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1-2 pounds pork tenderloin
Instructions:
- Start by in a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, pineapple juice, minced garlic, minced ginger, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes if using. Make sure the sugar is fully dissolved.
- Place the pork tenderloin inside a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish, and pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring it’s well coated. Seal the bag (or cover the dish) and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight for maximum flavor infusion.
- If you are grilling, preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the pork tenderloin from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Grill for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
- If you choose to roast it in the oven, preheat your oven to 400°F. Place the marinated pork on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until it also reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
- Once cooked, let the pork rest for about 5-10 minutes before slicing. This helps to keep the juices locked in.
- Serve this delicious pork with a side of steamed rice and grilled vegetables, and enjoy the tropical flavors!
This Hawaiian Pork Tenderloin Marinade is not only easy to prepare but will also impress anyone who takes a bite. Get ready for a sweet and savory experience that brings the taste of Hawaii to your kitchen. Enjoy your dinner!
