Honey Basil Grilled Pork Tenderloin

By kathya5084

I don't remember where this came from, but it's a keeper! The marinade is also good with chicken and fish/seafood. You can also cut the meat into 2 to 2 1/2 inch chunks and make kabobs!

Ingredients

• 2 Pork Tenderloins, small ends tied under (about 3 pounds)
• 1/2 cup honey
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 4 garlic cloves, crushed
• 2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Preparation

Step 1

Combine everything but the tenderloins in a small bowl and mix well.
Add tenderloins and marinade overnight in the refrigerator.
Lightly season tenderloins with salt and pepper.
Grill the tenderloins, browning on all sides first, then grill over medium to low heat until meat thermometer reaches 165 to 160 degrees. Cover and let rest 7 to 10 minutes.
If grilling kabobs, the time will be less.
