Maple-Garlic Marinated Pork Tenderloin

Maple-Garlic Marinated Pork Tenderloin pairs pork’s natural richness with a mellow maple sweetness, tangy Dijon, and warm garlic notes. An overnight soak infuses deep flavor and keeps the meat succulent, while a gently reduced marinade doubles as a glossy glaze on the grill. Serve it for a relaxed weeknight dinner or a casual backyard cookout.

Maple-Garlic Marinated Pork Tenderloin
  1. 1

    Mix the mustard, sesame oil, garlic, pepper, and maple syrup. Put the pork in a shallow dish and coat it well with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least eight hours or overnight.

  2. 2

    Preheat the grill to medium-low heat.

  3. 3

    Take the pork out of the marinade and set it aside. Pour the remaining marinade into a small saucepan and cook on the stove over medium-low heat for 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Oil the grill grate and set the meat on it. Grill the pork, basting with the reserved marinade, for about 15 to 25 minutes, or until the inside is no longer pink. Do not use high heat because the marinade will burn.
