Oven roasted hoisin pork tenderloin strips

Ingredients

• 2 pork tenderloins (approx 1 to 1.25 pounds each)
• 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger (a bit more if you like a lot of heat)
• 10 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Mirin** (or sherry)
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 1-2 scallions, sliced

Preparation

• Preheat oven to 350F. To make the marinade mixture, whisk together the soy, mirin, sugar, honey, and hoisin.
• Half of this recipe will be used to marinade the pork; the other half will be used later in the recipe.
• Trim silver skin and any excess fat from tenderloins and pat dry. Cut each tenderloin lengthwise, with the grain, into about 1-inch wide strips.
• Pour half the marinade mixture over the pork strips and refrigerate for an hour. After an hour, remove the pork from the used marinade; discard used marinade.
• Place marinaded pork strips on a rack suspended over a shallow pan and bake for 25-30 minutes until pork is cooked through.
• Meanwhile, simmer the unused reserved marinade and reduce slightly; brush several tablespoons of the reduced sauce onto the pork strips during the last 5 minutes of roasting.
• Add the sliced scallions to the remaining unused marinade and serve as a dipping sauce.
