Honey-Grilled Pork Tenderloin

I received this recipe from my daughter. We were having guests for dinner one night and I thought this entree would be the perfect start in planning the menu.

2 ServingsPrep: 10 min. + marinating Grill: 20 min. + standing

Ingredients

3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 pork tenderloin (3/4 pound)
4-1/2 teaspoons honey
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon sesame oil

Directions

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the soy sauce, garlic and
ginger; add the pork. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for at
least 8 hours or overnight.
In a small saucepan, combine the honey, brown sugar and oil. Cook and
stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat;
set aside.
Drain and discard marinade. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper
towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Prepare
grill for indirect heat using a drip pan.
Place pork over drip pan and grill, covered, over indirect medium-hot
heat for 20-25 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°,
basting frequently with honey mixture. Let stand for 5 minutes
before slicing. Yield: 2 servings.
