Original Recipe Yield 6 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 2 (1 1/2 pound) pork tenderloins, trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons light soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sherry
  • 1 tablespoon black bean sauce
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons packed brown sugar
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 pinch Chinese five-spice powder

Directions

  1. Place tenderloins in a shallow glass dish. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sherry, black bean sauce, ginger, sugar, garlic, sesame oil, and five-spice powder. Pour marinade over pork, and turn to coat. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.
  2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Remove tenderloins from refrigerator while the oven preheats.
  3. Bake pork in preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or to desired doneness. Let stand for 10 minutes, and then slice diagonally into thin slices.
