Steps:
- Combine all marinade ingredients and marinate 24 to 48 hours. Grill over medium-hot coals or gas grill 7 minutes per each of the 4 sides, basting each time. You can also heat the marinade to boiling, then lower heat and stir well until thickened and serve either over or on the side with the pork.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: Pork tenderloin is a lean and tender cut of meat that is perfect for this dish. It is important to choose a tenderloin that is at least 1 pound in weight and that is free of any large pieces of fat.
- Marinate the pork: Marinating the pork in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, garlic, and ginger helps to tenderize the meat and add flavor. Be sure to marinate the pork for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than overnight.
- Sear the pork: Searing the pork in a hot skillet helps to create a crispy crust and lock in the juices. Be sure to sear the pork over high heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it is browned.
- Cook the pork: After searing, the pork can be cooked in a variety of ways. One option is to bake it in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until it is cooked through. Another option is to stir-fry the pork in a hot skillet with vegetables until it is cooked through.
- Serve the pork: Cantonese pork tenderloin can be served with a variety of sides, such as steamed rice, stir-fried vegetables, or egg rolls. It can also be served as a main course with a side of dipping sauce.
Conclusion:
Cantonese pork tenderloin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can create a tender and flavorful pork dish that your family and friends will love.
