Method

Preparation of Marinade

  1. 1

    Make the Marinade

    In a medium bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Whisk until well blended.

Marinating the Pork

  1. 2

    Marinate the Pork

    Place the pork tenderloin in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

Cooking the Pork

  1. 3

    Cook the Pork

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Remove the pork from the marinade and place it in a baking dish. Reserve the marinade for later use. Bake the pork for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

  2. 4

    Prepare the Sauce

    While the pork is baking, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat and simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Add sesame seeds and stir to combine.

Serving the Dish

  1. 5

    Serve the Pork

    Once the pork is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice the pork into medallions and drizzle the sauce over the top. Garnish with chopped green onions.

  2. 6

    Plate the Meal

    Serve the honey sesame pork over cooked rice and alongside steamed broccoli.
