SPICY CHINESE PORK TENDERLOIN



Spicy Chinese Pork Tenderloin image

This easy recipe is one of my favorite dinners for company. Leaving out the red pepper flakes, makes it a dish for anyone. Presented on a platter over rice, it looks very appealing. It is equally as good made on the grill, or in the oven. It originally came from a syndicated column in our local newspaper. Prep time includes marinading.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: Pork tenderloin is a lean and tender cut of meat that is perfect for stir-frying. It is important to choose a tenderloin that is fresh and has no blemishes.
  • Slice the pork thinly: This will help the pork to cook evenly and quickly. You can use a sharp knife or a meat slicer to slice the pork.
  • Marinate the pork: Marinating the pork will help to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with soy sauce, rice wine, and ginger, or you can get more creative with your marinade ingredients.
  • Use a hot wok: A hot wok is essential for stir-frying. The high heat will help to sear the pork and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
  • Toss the pork constantly: This will help to ensure that the pork cooks evenly. You can use a spatula or a pair of tongs to toss the pork.
  • Do not overcook the pork: Pork tenderloin is a very lean cut of meat, so it is important to not overcook it. Overcooked pork will become tough and dry.
  • Serve the pork immediately: Stir-fried pork is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to ensure that the pork is tender and juicy.

Conclusion:

Chinese pork tenderloin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. By following these tips, you can make sure that your pork tenderloin is tender, juicy, and flavorful. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give Chinese pork tenderloin a try!
