Prep Time: 8 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 23 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1 pound pork tenderloin (2 tenderloins)
• 4 teaspoons reduced sodium soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons dry sherry
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons powdered ginger, or 2 tablespoons grated ginger root

Instructions:

Rinse pork; dry and trim excess fat. Cut tenderloins in half crosswise then slice almost through and butterfly, pounding lightly to flatten. In a food storage bag, combine soy sauce, sherry, and lemon juice. Add grated or powdered ginger. Turn pork in marinade to coat. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.

Preheat broiler and cover broiler pan with aluminum foil.

Broil pork, browning on all sides, basting w/marinade once or twice.
