PORK IN PEANUT SAUCE
A quick and easy, delicious way to serve pork! Can be served over a bed of chopped romaine for a low-carb meal, or noodles for the traditionalists. The oil you use will make all the difference: the peanuttier the better; an obscure brand from the ethnic section of the supermarket is usually a better bet than one of the cheaper, mass-market varieties.

GRILLED ASIAN PORK TENDERLOIN WITH PEANUT SAUCE
Awesome recipe, yummy sauce! This is from the newest Fine Cooking magazine, (July 2007). We were having cocktails at some friends' house this afternoon, and we couldn't wait to make it, so went to the store and bought the ingredients we didn't have. We didn't have any sides, (besides the cocktails, LOL), we just picked at it and enjoyed! We didn't have time today, but next time we will marinate it longer, a few hours in the fridge for even MORE flavor! Try this! (Cook time does not reflect marinating time.)

Steps:
- In large bowl, whisk the coconut milk, peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, garlic and coriander to make a smooth sauce.
- Trim the pork of excess fat and silverskin.
- Butterfly the tenderloins by splitting each one lengthwise almost but not quite all the way through, so the halves remain attached.
- Open each tenderloin like a book, cover with plastic wrap, and pound to an even 1/2 inch thickness.
- Place the pork loins in a bowl with marinade and turn to coat. Let marinate 10-20 minutes, (or up to several hours in the refrigerator.)
- While pork marinates, heat gas grill on high, clean and oil grates.
- Remove tenderloins from marinade, letting excess marinade drip back into the bowl, (don't discard the marinade.).
- Grill, uncovered, turning once, until just cooked through, 5-7 minutes. (Cut into one to check.) Transfer to a carving board and let stand 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, pour marinade into small saucepan and add 2 tablespoons of water, bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer for 3 minutes. If sauce seems too thick, thin it with 1-2 tablespoons water.
- Slice pork and serve with sauce on the side.

PORK SATAY WITH THAI SPICES AND PEANUT SAUCE
Throughout Southeast Asia, little skewers of marinated meat, grilled over coals, are sold as street snacks. Sweetly fragrant with coconut milk and spices, they are perfect for barbecue parties served with steamed rice, or on their own with drinks, whether grilled indoors or out. You may use pork loin or tenderloin, but marbled sirloin or shoulder is more succulent.

Steps:
- Prepare the skewers: Put pork in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, stir together shallot, garlic, ginger, lemongrass, cumin, coriander, turmeric, cayenne, fish sauce, lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar and coconut milk, and pour over meat. Toss with your hands to coat well. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight. Meanwhile, soak 12 bamboo skewers in water.
- Prepare the cucumbers: Put cucumbers in a mixing bowl and season with salt. Add lime juice, sugar, shallots and chiles and toss to coat. Let stand for 15 minutes. Check seasoning, then transfer to a serving dish.
- Prepare the peanut sauce: Pulse the peanuts briefly in a food processor just until finely ground. Add the garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, fish sauce, lime juice, cayenne and coconut milk, and process until well puréed. Transfer to a bowl, then taste and adjust seasoning. Thin a bit with lime juice or water as desired.
- Thread 2 slices of pork onto each bamboo skewer, keeping the meat as flat as possible. Grill over hot coals, under the broiler or on a stovetop grill pan for 3 minutes on each side, until cooked through and lightly browned. Transfer to a platter and garnish with cilantro and basil leaves. Serve with cucumber relish and peanut sauce.
Tips:
- To make sure the pork tenderloins are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that they have reached 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 meat should be slightly pink in the center.
- If you are using wooden skewers to hold the pork tenderloin slices together, be sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using. This will help to prevent them from burning.
- To make the Asian peanut sauce, you can use either smooth or chunky peanut butter. If you use chunky peanut butter, be sure to stir it well before using so that the oil is evenly distributed.
- You can also add other ingredients to the Asian peanut sauce, such as honey, Sriracha, or ginger, to taste.
- Serve the pork tenderloins with the Asian peanut sauce, rice, and your favorite vegetables.
Conclusion:
Pork tenderloins with Asian peanut sauce are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The pork is tender and juicy, and the peanut sauce is creamy and flavorful. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
