How to Make Asian Grilled Pork Tenderloin

Whisk together marinade ingredients (see below) in a measuring cup until well combined.
Place the pork tenderloin in a resealable plastic bag.
Pour the marinade over the tenderloin, ensuring it's fully coated. Seal the bag tightly.
Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
Preheat your outdoor grill to medium heat (approximately 350°F) or preheat your oven to 350°F.
Remove the pork tenderloin from the marinade and pat it completely dry with paper towels.
Lightly brush the grill grates with olive oil. Brush the pork tenderloin with olive oil for extra flavor and to prevent sticking.
Reserve ½ cup of the marinade for the sauce. Discard the remaining marinade.
Grill the tenderloin for 30-40 minutes, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F. Alternatively, roast in a preheated oven at 350°F for 35-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
Remove the pork tenderloin from the grill or oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
While the pork rests, prepare the sauce: In a small saucepan, bring the reserved marinade to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened to about 2 tablespoons (about 10-15 minutes).
Slice the pork tenderloin into 2-inch thick pieces.
Drizzle the reduced marinade sauce over the sliced pork tenderloin and serve immediately.
