A flavorful herb marinade gives a lovely glaze and lots of savory grilled taste to this moist, melt-in-your-mouth tenderloin. The marinade's also great on chicken. Judy Neil-Royal Oak, Michigan

Ingredients

1/2 cup sherry or reduced-sodium chicken broth
3 tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon canola oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
4-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh sage or 1-1/2 teaspoons rubbed sage
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 bay leaf
2 pork tenderloins (1 pound each)

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the first nine ingredients. Pour 3/4 cup marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add pork. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.
Drain and discard marinade. Lightly oil 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 25-40 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°, basting occasionally with reserved marinade. Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing.
