Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

⅓ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup white vinegar
¼ cup fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons Melt® Organic Buttery Spread
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
3 garlic cloves, minced
½ teaspoon pepper
2 (1 pound) pork tenderloins, trimmed all visible fat, and cut into 3-by-1/4-inch strips
½ cup lightly packed fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • For the sauce: Whisk the granulated sugar, vinegar, lime juice, fish sauce, garlic, and red pepper flakes together in a bowl; set aside for serving.
  • For the pork: Combine the Melt®, fish sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and pepper in a bowl. Combine the marinade and pork in a large zipper-lock bag. Seal the bag tightly, toss to coat the pork, and let the pork marinate in the refrigerator for up to 1 hour.
  • Weave 2 pieces of pork onto each skewer.
  • For a Charcoal grill: Open the bottom grill vents completely. Light a large chimney starter filled with charcoal briquettes (100 briquettes; 6 quarts). When the coals are hot, pour them in an even layer over the grill. Set the cooking grate in place, cover, and heat the grill until hot, about 5 minutes.
  • For a gas grill: Turn all the burners to high, cover, and heat the grill until hot, about 15 minutes. (Adjust the burners as needed to maintain a hot fire.)
  • Clean and oil the cooking grate. Place skewers on the grill and cook until the meat is cooked through and lightly charred around the edges, 7 to 10 minutes, flipping the skewers halfway through.
  • Transfer the skewers to a platter and let rest for 5 minutes. Remove the meat from the skewers, sprinkle the cilantro leaves over the top, and serve, passing the sauce separately.

PORK TENDERLOIN - THAI-STYLE



Pork Tenderloin - Thai-Style image

This Asian style tenderloin takes very little time to prepare, but looks and tastes like a lot of work went into it. The recipe as is serves two, but doubles well if you are serving more people. I serve with chili-garlic paste on the side. Prep time includes marinating time.
