Ingredients

• 2 pounds pork tenderloin
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 4 cloves garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
• 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the marinade by mincing the garlic cloves and finely chopping the fresh rosemary and thyme.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the olive oil, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, black pepper, salt, and lemon juice. Mix well to combine.

Step 3

Place the pork tenderloin in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the pork, making sure it is evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably 4-6 hours for the best flavor.

Step 4

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 400°F (200°C). Oil the grill grates lightly to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Remove the pork tenderloin from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Place the tenderloin on the preheated grill.

Step 6

Grill the pork for about 20-25 minutes, turning every 5-7 minutes to ensure even cooking. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness; the internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).

Step 7

Once cooked, remove the tenderloin from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a moist and tender result.

Step 8

Slice the pork tenderloin into 1-inch thick medallions and serve immediately. Pair with your favorite side dishes or salads for a complete meal.
