Remove visible fat from tenderloin and discard. Set tenderloin aside.

Brush tenderloins with marinade or pour one-third of the marinade evenly over the pork. Place in oven or grill with lid closed.
Every 5 minutes, turn over the tenderloin and add 1 tablespoon of additional marinade, until meat is fully cooked (to a minimum internal temperature of 160 °F).
Let stand for 5 minutes.
Cut 12 slices, each about 1 inch thick. Serve three slices (about 3 oz cooked weight) per serving.

Tips and Notes

Try serving this with steamed spinach and rice or Asian-style noodles (soba or udon).
