Asian Barbecued Pork Loin
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Bake: 1 hour + standing
YIELD: 8-10 servings.
There are a lot of Asian pork tenderloin recipes out there. But this one makes a tender and juicy roast topped with a sweet, spicy glaze. I like serving it with jasmine rice and green beans almondine. —Melissa Carafa, Broomall, Pennsylvania
