INGREDIENTS

  • Pork

    • 1 (1 pound) pork tenderloin
  • Dry Seasonings

    • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
    • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
    • 1 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder
    • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1 teaspoon onion powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • For Cooking

    • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • For Sauce

    • 1/3 cup honey
    • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
    • 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
    • 🧄 6 cloves garlic, minced

STEPS

1

Gather all ingredients.

2

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 10x15-inch baking pan with a wire rack.

3

Trim silver skin and excess fat from the pork tenderloin.

4

Combine brown sugar, salt, Chinese five spice powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper in a small bowl.

5

Sprinkle tenderloin all over with the spice mixture, rubbing to coat.

6

Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Sear tenderloin until browned on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes.

7

Place tenderloin on the rack in the prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted near the center reads 140 degrees F (61 degrees C), about 20 to 25 minutes.

8

Remove from oven, tent with foil, and let rest for 10 minutes. Internal temperature will rise to 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) or higher.

9

Meanwhile for sauce, heat honey, soy sauce, vinegar, and garlic in the same skillet. Simmer until liquid reduces and thickens, about 5 minutes.

10

Slice pork and serve with warm sauce.
