Instructions

Make the marinade:

  1. In a medium bowl, combine all the marinade ingredients. Pierce the pork with a fork all over the surface and add it to the bowl. Cover and marinate for 2-3 hours or 24 hours.

Make the honey garlic paste:

  1. Combine all the Paste ingredients in another medium bowl when ready to grill the pork. Stir until smooth.
  2. Remove pork tenderloin from the marinade, pat dry, and spread the paste generously over it.
  3. Heat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the pork for about 20 minutes, turning occasionally with tongs, until charred and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 145 degrees F. For larger tenderloins, cook longer until the desired internal temperature is reached.

Green Sauce:

  1. In a medium bowl, stir together all ingredients and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Let the pork rest for 10 minutes, then slice and serve with the sauce.
