Asian-Spiced Pork Tenderloins With Apricot Sauce
Serves 6
Easy Apricot Sauce:
2/3 cup apricot preserves NOTE: using Smuckers sugar free preserves would be just fine and much less carbs ;-)
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce
Asian rub:
1 tablespoon packed dark brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoons Chinese five-spice powder
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 (12-ounce) pork tenderloins
To make the Easy Apricot Sauce: Mix preserves, vinegar and soy sauce in a small saucepan and bring to boil. Remove from heat and cool.
To make the Asian rub: Combine brown sugar, salt, five-spice powder and pepper.
Sprinkle and rub mixture evenly on all surfaces of the pork
tenderloins. Prepare a medium-hot fire in the grill. Grill
tenderloins, uncovered, over direct heat for 15 to 20 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 160 degrees, turning the tenderloins over halfway through cooking. Loosely cover with foil. Let rest for 5 minutes. To serve, cut pork tenderloins into 1/2-inch thick slices and serve with sauce.
