Hoisin-Glazed Pork Tenderloin

By lorik

Buy tenderloins that are of equal size and weight so they cook at the same rate; make sure they are no larger than 12 ounces, as bigger tenderloins won’t fit in the skillet together.

Ingredients

• 2 (12-ounce) pork tenderloins, trimmed
• Salt and pepper
• 3/4 cup chicken broth
• 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
• 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon ketchup
• 2 teaspoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 2 scallions, sliced thin on bias
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted

Preparation

Step 1

1. Pound tenderloins between 2 sheets of plastic wrap to 1-inch thickness. Pat tenderloins dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Whisk broth, hoisin, sugar, ketchup, and soy sauce together in bowl.

2. Heat oil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Cook tenderloins until well browned on both sides and meat registers 140 degrees, about 7 minutes per side. Add hoisin mixture and simmer until slightly thickened, 2 to 5 minutes, turning tenderloins to coat.

3. Remove skillet from heat and let pork rest in sauce for 5 minutes, then slice 1/2 inch thick. Serve, drizzled with glaze and sprinkled with scallions and sesame seeds.
