Honey-Gingered Pork Tenderloin
- 2 (3/4 lb) pork tenderloin
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup oyster sauce
- 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon fresh minced ginger
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- For sauce
- 1 (14 ounce) can chicken broth (optional)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch (or enough as needed) (optional)
- Pat the pork dry and arrange in a shallow baking dish.
- Whisk together remaining ingredients in a bowl, and pour over pork.
- Place in refrigerator and MARINATE AT LEAST 8 hours, but 24 is better.
- Turn at least twice during this time.
- Preheat oven to 400 Degrees.
- Remove pork, placing in a clean shallow baking dish (non-stick is perfect).
- Reserve marinade if you wish to make a sauce with it.
- Bake about 35 minutes, or until meat thermometer registers 155 degrees.
- Remove from oven, let rest 5 minutes and slice thinly.
- For sauce: Strain reserved marinade into a sauce pan.
- Add chicken broth, and bring to a boil.
- Cook down to about half original quantity.
- Add cornstarch as needed to thicken.
- This sauce is rather strong, I usually just nap the plates with it and pass the rest at table.
