Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
⅓ cup Vegetable oil
¼ cup Dry sherry
3 tablespoons Reduced sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons Light or dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon Grated lime zest
3 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
3 Garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon Minced fresh cilantro
Two 3/4 to 1 pound pork
Tenderloins
Salt and freshly ground
Black pepper

Directions

In a shallow nonreactive dish, combine all the marinade ingredients.

Add the tenderloins and turn to coat them. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Remove the tenderloins from the marinade , reserving the marinade, pat dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Place the tenderloins in a roasting pan and roast, basting occasionally with the marinade, for 30 minutes, or until cooked through and an instant read thermometer registers 155 degrees. Transfer the tenderloins to a serving platter and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Yield: 6 servings
