Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

4 slices (each 1/2 inch thick) fresh pineapple
3 tablespoons dark hoisin sauce
2 teaspoons grated peeled fresh ginger
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin, trimmed
Coarse salt and fresh ground pepper
Quick Ginger Sauce (recipe below), for serving

Quick Ginger Sauce

2 tablespoons dark hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons pineapple juice
2 teaspoons grated peeled fresh ginger
1 teaspoon soy sauce
Fresh ground pepper

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat the broiler. Place the pineapple slices on a foil-lined baking sheet.

    Step 2

    In a small bowl, combine the hoisin sauce, ginger, garlic, and mustard.

    Step 3

    Place the pork on a broiler pan fitted with a rack. Brush with the hoisin mixture; season with salt and pepper.

    Step 4

    Place the pork in the broiler, about 4 inches from the heat; place the pineapple in the oven. Broil the pork until it registers 155°F on an instant-read thermometer, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the broiler (let rest at least 10 minutes before slicing; the temperature will rise to 160°F as the pork sits). Turn the pineapple slices; cook until browned in spots, about 10 minutes more.

    Step 5

    Halve the pineapple slices; arrange on a platter with the sliced pork. Drizzle the pork with the pan juices; season with salt and pepper. Serve with the quick ginger sauce.

  2. Quick Ginger Sauce

    Step 6

    In a small bowl, stir together the hoisin sauce, pineapple juice, ginger, and soy sauce; season with pepper.
