2day's recipe: Honey Bourbon Pork Tenderloin

I love pork tenderloin.  It is so easy to add flavor to and goes with anything - its the "other white meat".  LOL.  Here is a wonderful, easy pork tenderloin recipe.  I would serve wild rice or gouda masked potatoes with this and maybe a tart green like collards (sweet potatoes would be good too).  If you don't dig collards, use spinach.
Enjoy :-)

Honey Bourbon Pork Tenderloin


Ingredients
2 pounds pork tenderloin trimmed
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons bourbon whiskey


Instructions
Blend honey, soy sauce and whiskey in small saucepan. Heat over medium heat to blend flavors. Trim pork and sprinkle with olive oil, salt and pepper. Spray baking sheet with cooking spray, or if you are grilling, prepare grill.

Roast tenderloin at 400 for 20 minutes or until temp reaches 160. Cool meat, slice, package and pour sauce over.

Yields: 4-6 Servings


notes: Tips/Extra Instructions
I have also prepared this for client to grill by just making the sauce right in a zip-loc bag and adding trimmed tenderloins to bag. When ready to grill, take out of bag and reserve sauce. Pat dry and sprinkle the evoo, salt and pepper on tenderloins. Grill, turning once, till desired doneness, let rest and slice. Heat sauce till boiling and ladle over tenderloins.

I like to double this sauce; it is very yummy! Enjoy!
