- 1 tsp grated ginger

Instructions
-
In a bowl, combine hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, Chinese five spice powder, garlic, and ginger. Mix well.

Place the pork tenderloin in a resealable bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Preheat the grill or oven to 400°F (200°C).

Remove the pork tenderloin from the marinade and reserve the marinade for later use.

Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloin on all sides until browned.

Transfer the pork tenderloin to the grill or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

While the pork is cooking, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil and let it simmer for 5 minutes.
-
Brush the cooked pork tenderloin with the boiled marinade and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until nicely caramelized.
-
Remove the pork from the grill or oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
