Gingered Tenderloin Salad
- 1/2 cup ginger preserves
- 1/3 cup rice vinegar
- 1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 1/2 tablespoons dark sesame oil
- 1 (1-pound) pork tenderloin
- Vegetable cooking spray
- 6 cups shredded napa cabbage (or other Chinese cabbage)
- 1 cup thinly sliced sweet red pepper
- Combine first 4 ingredients in a small saucepan. Place over medium heat; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, and let cool completely.
- Trim fat from tenderloin. Place tenderloin in a large heavy-duty, zip-top plastic bag. Pour half of soy sauce mixture over tenderloin; reserve remaining soy sauce mixture. Seal bag, and shake until tenderloin is well coated. Marinate in refrigerator at least 2 hours, turning bag occasionally.
- Remove tenderloin from marinade, reserving marinade. Insert meat thermometer into thickest part of tenderloin, if desired. Place marinade in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil; remove from heat, and set aside. Coat grill rack with cooking spray; place on grill over medium-hot coals (350u0b0 to 400u0b0). Place tenderloin on rack; grill, covered, 20 minutes or until meat thermometer registers 160u0b0, turning and basting occasionally with reserved marinade. Let tenderloin stand 10 minutes; slice diagonally across grain into thin slices.
- Combine cabbage and red pepper. Pour remaining half of soy sauce mixture over cabbage mixture; toss lightly. Spoon cabbage mixture evenly onto individual salad plates. Arrange tenderloin slices over cabbage mixture.
