Categories     Pork     Sauté

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 (1-pound) pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut crosswise into (1/2-inch-thick) slices
Cooking spray
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup dry sherry
1/4 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/4 cup chopped green onions

Steps:

  • * Combine first 3 ingredients, and rub evenly over pork. * Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add pork to pan, and cook 1 1/2 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Remove pork from pan, and set aside. * Reduce heat to medium. Add 2 tablespoons onions, ginger, and garlic to pan; cook 2 minutes or until fragrant, stirring constantly. * Combine sherry and next 5 ingredients (through soy sauce) in a small bowl. * Add sherry mixture to pan; bring to a boil, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. * Add pork to pan; cook 3 minutes or until pork is done. * Remove pork from pan using a slotted spoon, reserving liquid in pan. * Combine water and cornstarch in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk. * Add cornstarch mixture to pan, and bring to a boil. Cook 30 seconds or until slightly thickened. Serve over pork. * Sprinkle with 1/4 cup green onions.

Tips:

  • For a crispier pork tenderloin, sear it on all sides over high heat before reducing the heat to medium-low and cooking through.
  • To ensure that the pork tenderloin is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The pork is cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check for doneness by cutting into the pork tenderloin. The pork is cooked when the juices run clear.
  • Let the pork tenderloin rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful pork tenderloin.
  • Serve the pork tenderloin with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

This lemon-ginger pork tenderloin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The pork is tender and flavorful, and the lemon-ginger sauce is the perfect complement. Whether you're cooking for a special occasion or just a weeknight dinner, this pork tenderloin is sure to please everyone at the table.
