Asian Pork Tenderloin
This tender, juicy pork loin is so amazing on the grill! Add this delicious Asian Marinade to the pork tenderloin it becomes out of this world. I love that I can whip up this marinade in the morning and let my pork tenderloins marinate while I’m busy all day then grill them for dinner. They are on and off the grill in 30 minutes. That’s my kind of meal!
My family is not a big on waiting for me to make them dinner so the faster the better. You’d never know these are so fast because they are so flavorful and delicious!
Sometimes I feel like a short order cook, but that’s my own deal. I say yes to their demands. I’ve created little monsters 😉
Grilled Pork Tenderloin
I love that it’s easy to throw on some kid friendly grilling staples if I need to while I make things like Asian Pork Loins. It doesn’t dirty any more dishes and it’s a win for all of us. I’ve also found out over the years that if they take one bite, that’s usually the hardest bite to get them to take of anything I make.
Usually, but not always, it results in, “Mom this is good!”
Then I have one of those moments thinking “I TOLD YOU SO!”
Even if they call my pork tenderloin by chicken because apparently that’s all they know. Hey, if they eat it I’ll take it!
How to Make Grilled Asian Pork Tenderloin
This is so easy to make like I said before. You just whisk up the five ingredients for the marinade. Yes, that’s right five ingredients only, that are all probably already in your pantry! Then pour half of it over your pork tenderloins.
Let those tenderloins marinate for 4-8 hours while you go about your day. If they are in a container you can flip them half way if you have time. I like to stick mine in gallon resealable bags, squeeze out the air and usually the marinade is all over them while they sit.
When it’s time to grill simply preheat your grill to 350 degrees and grill your tenderloins for 30 minutes. You flip them about three times and baste them when you do this. When they reach 145 degrees they are done. I love this Wireless Food Thermometer to help me track the temperature while I grill!
That’s it!
Dinner is done and everyone will be smiling.
Did I mention these are so delicious and flavorful that if you are entertaining guests these are the perfect recipe!

I’m a little confused. Is this a recipe for pork tenderloin or for pork loin? There is a difference.
I used a tenderloin. You can use it for a pork loin, depending on the size you might need to double the marinade grill it longer, rotating every 30 minutes.
Indirect or direct heat?
Direct heat!
Julie, This was so easy & so yummy! My hubby doesn’t usually like ‘sweet’ meat but he even enjoyed it! ???? Thanks for sharing!!
Kindly-
Heather
Glad to hear it Heather! Thanks for coming back and commenting/rating it!
I added 1 Tbs. of Chinese 5 Spice Powder to the marinade. Delicious
Great addition Donna! Glad you enjoyed it.
My son-in-law is not a big pork fan, but he sure ate this one up! Excellent!!!
So glad you all enjoyed it! You know it’s good if he ate it!
This was excellent. Simple and delicious! Can this be frozen after cooking ? What temperature and for how long?
Yes, you can freeze this after cooking. I’m not sure what temperature you are asking about?
If you’re not grilling it, pop it in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until internal temp of pork reaches 145.
My family really enjoyed these ribs. I’m not a big BBQ fan, but I liked these!
That’s great! So happy they were a hit!
