Category: Main Dish

2 tablespoons sliced green onions

2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

2 tablespoons honey

1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

1 tablespoon hot water

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 (1-pound) pork tenderloin, trimmed

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon sesame seeds



Preparation



Preheat oven to 400°.

Combine first 7 ingredients in a small bowl. Pour 1/4 cup honey mixture into a large zip-top plastic bag; reserve remaining honey mixture. Add pork to bag; seal and marinate in refrigerator 30 minutes or longer turning bag occasionally.

Remove pork from bag; discard marinade. Sprinkle pork with salt. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add pork; cook 2 minutes, browning on all sides. Brush 1 tablespoon reserved honey mixture over pork; sprinkle with sesame seeds. Place skillet in oven. Bake at 400° for 20 minutes or until a thermometer registers 160° or until desired degree of doneness.

Place pork on a platter; let stand 5 minutes. (Important to let it stand.) Cut pork across the grain into thin slices. Drizzle with the remaining honey mixture
