How to Make Spicy Pork Tenderloins With Chili And Black Vinegar
Pork tenders are a totally underappreciated source of protein. They’re lean, flavorful, easy to cook, and when marinated, take on flavor very well. One tender will feed 2 people. I often split the tender open and pound it out lightly to form a large 1⁄2-inch-thick circle of deliciousness.

Step-By-Step Instructions:
- Combine soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, brown sugar, pepper, garlic, and ginger root in a medium bowl and put into a large, tightly sealed plastic bag. Marinate at least 15 minutes at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator for best results.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat and place on grill grate. Cook over direct heat for 15–18 minutes, turning occasionally until cooked through and crusted on the outside.
