Honey And Mint Glazed Pork Tenderloin
From keni 12 years ago
- 30min+ to make
- Serves 6
Just a few ingredients make up a marinade that not only lends a slightly sweet, slightly spicy flavor, but also helps keep the pork tenderloins tender and juicy. Prepare as desired, just please always be careful not to over cook pork. Read more I did serve this with Greek Orzotto which helped nudge it to a slight Mediterranean taste. See less
Ingredients
- 2 whole boneless pork tenderloins shopping list
- 1/4 cup honey shopping list
- juice from 1 lemon shopping list
- 2T olive oil shopping list
- 3 cloves garlic, minced shopping list
- 1/4-2t red pepper flakes shopping list
- about 1T fresh oregano, rubbed and chopped shopping list
- about 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, rubbed and roughly chopped shopping list
- kosher or sea salt and plenty of fresh ground pepper shopping list
How to make it
- Combine all ingredients other than pork in a large zipper bag or lidded container.
- Add pork and turn or toss to coat well.
- Refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to over night.
- Let meat rest out of fridge for about 30 minutes then cook using high heat either on the grill, the broiler, cast iron on the stove top or the oven until internal temp is between 145-155(pork is safe to eat at 145... we prefer to eat just below or just at 155, so cook to about 148-150, tops, then let rest a few minutes.)
- Slice into medallions to serve.
