Asian Pork Medallions
When I became serious about losing weight and getting healthy, my kids missed the Chinese delivery that I used to order so frequently. I combined a few recipes to come up with this tasty winner. —Dianne James, Edmond, Oklahoma

Made this tonight for my family. Followed everything to the recipe, except I used olive oil, instead of sesame oil. Everyone loved it, and it has gone into the requested, repeat recipe book! Thank you so much for this! I have very limited options for pork go to's! This one has definitely hit the number one requested pork dish! P.S. I served it with white rice, and sweet peas.
Made this tonight for supper and it was amazing! I had never made a pork tenderloin so i was a little worried. However it was super easy and the directions were spot on. For sure an easy weeknight supper. The sauce was delicious i would make double next time. I served with rice and cheesy cauliflower.

My husband and I loved this! I added some veggies and we like it spicy so I kicked up the cayenne a notch. Delicious! It is going on our do-over list.
Great flavor! Even using low sodium soy, this was still too salty...will likely dilute next time to try and cut back on salt taste.
This got rave reviews at my table as well. Super fast, easy, and economical. This would be great alongside some stir-fried vegetables as well!
I love trying new recipes. My finicky husband usually gives them mediocre ratings. But this one got two thumbs up and is a keeper. We loved it served over rice. Will make extra sauce next time, for drizzling, as recommended by a previous poster.
Delicious. Doubled the sauce so we could have extra to drizzle on rice.
Love love love this recipe!! I tweaked a few things -- like using cornstarch to thicken instead of simmering (it only made the sauce saltier and I use low-sodium soy sauce!) and using more red pepper (I like the spicy!). Making it for extended family tonight and I really think it will go over well! :)
I have very few recipes that ever get rated as excellent in my home, but this one got rave reviews.
