Ingredients

• 1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut into 1-inch medallions
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
• 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Fresh herbs (such as cilantro or parsley), for garnish

How to Make Glazed Pork Tenderloin Medallions

1. Start by seasoning the pork medallions with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Set aside.
3. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
4. Once the oil is hot, add the pork medallions and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through (the internal temperature should reach 145°F).
5. Reduce the heat to medium and pour the honey soy sauce mixture over the pork. Let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and coat the medallions.
6. Remove the skillet from heat and let the pork rest for a couple of minutes.
7. Serve the glazed pork medallions with a sprinkle of sliced green onions and fresh herbs on top.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure the pork is not overcrowded in the skillet to achieve a good sear.
• Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness; pork should reach 145°F.
• For extra flavor, marinate the pork in the glaze for 30 minutes before cooking.
• If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of water to loosen it.

Easy Variations

• For a spicy kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the glaze.
• Substitute the honey with maple syrup for a different sweetness.
• Add a splash of rice vinegar to the glaze for added acidity.
• Incorporate vegetables such as bell peppers or snap peas into the skillet for a complete meal.
