The marinade for this grilled pork tenderloin is laden with lots of wonderful flavors, like cinnamon, honey and garlic. It turns out perfectly every time and always impresses. —Cathleen Bushman, Geneva, Illinois

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons sherry or chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
