Molasses Pork Tenderloin with Red Wine Sauce

Ingredients

  • 1 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 ¼ cups molasses
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
  • 2 large garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 (¾-pound) pork tenderloins

Red Wine Sauce Ingredients

  • ½ small sweet onion, minced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • ½ cup dry red wine
  • 1 (14 ½-ounce) can beef broth
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

Preparation

Combine first 6 ingredients in a shallow dish or heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag; add tenderloins. Cover or seal, and chill 8 hours.

Remove tenderloins from marinade, discarding marinade.

Grill tenderloins, covered with grill lid, over medium-high heat (350° to 400°) 20 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted into thickest portion registers 160°, turning occasionally. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with Red Wine Sauce, if desired.

Note: Tenderloins may be pan seared in a hot skillet to brown and then baked at 375° for 15 to 20 minutes.

Red Wine Sauce Preparation

Sauté onion in butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat 3 minutes, or until browned. Add wine, and cook 3 minutes. Add beef broth; bring to a boil, and cook 5 minutes.

Stir together ¼ cup water and cornstarch; add to broth mixture, stirring constantly, 1 minute or until mixture thickens. Remove from heat, and serve over tenderloin.
