LEMON-SOY GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN

Category: Pork I - Tenderloins and Roasts

Marinade
2 tsp crushed and chopped fresh garlic
1/4 cup lite soy sauce
1/4 cup oil
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

1 pork tenderloin

Mix all marinade ingredients in small resealable plastic bag. Massage bag to mix ingredients. Remove a few tablespoons for basting the pork while it cooks and put it in a small cup or covered container. Add pork tenderloin to the bag. Massage to distribute marinade around meat, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to a day.

When ready to cook the meat, have grill at medium-high temperature (about 400-450 degrees) for indirect heat. Baste with the reserved marinade occasionally. Cooking time will depend on heat of the grill and thickness of the meat. Use an instant-read thermometer to test for doneness. Remove pork at about 155 degrees and let it rest for about 10-15 minutes to finish cooking and allow juices to settle. Slice at an angle so you can get larger pieces.
