Ginger Pork Tenderloin

Ginger Pork Tenderloin

This Ginger Pork Tenderloin is an easy, flavorful main dish that’s especially convenient for meal prep. The pork marinates in a combination of coconut aminos, fresh ginger, honey, lemon, cilantro, and garlic before being grilled.

We discovered the original recipe in our Once a Month Meals menu, and have remade it several times.

Because most of the thin marinade is discarded before cooking, the nutrition information below estimates the amount of marinade retained by the pork rather than counting the entire batch of marinade.

For easy macro tracking, nutrition information is provided per 100 g of the finished pork tenderloin. Weigh your cooked portion and use the corresponding nutrition information for the amount you eat.
