Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin
  • kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine or sherry
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon light brown sugar
  • 2 cloves garlic minced

Method
 

  1. Season pork tenderloin lightly on all sides with salt and pepper and place in a large resealable plastic bag.
  2. Combine remaining ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk to dissolve honey and brown sugar. Pour over pork in the bag and move the pork around to coat with marinade. Seal tightly and place on a plate in the refrigerator for at least an hour but you can also do this the night before.
  3. Heat oven to 400°F and arrange a rack in the top of the oven. Cover a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top of the foil. Pour enough water in the baking sheet to cover the bottom and place pork on the rack, reserve marinade.
  4. Roast in the top of the oven for 40 minutes, turning and brushing with the marinade every 10 minutes or so. Pork is done when the internal temperature reaches 160°F and is browned and glossy.
