Ingredients

• 1 (1.2 lbs) pork tenderloin
• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp, grated ginger
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 1 tbsp sesame oil

• 2 tbsp vegetable oil

Instructions

1. Step 1: Whisk 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp grated ginger, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp sesame oil in a small bowl to create the glaze.
2. Step 2: Pat 1 (1.2 lbs) pork tenderloin dry with paper towels, then season lightly with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, add pork, and sear for 3 minutes per side until golden brown.
