Ingredients
Salad ingredients
Preparation
In The Oven
- In a bowl, combine chili sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger and garlic. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place pork tenderloins in a glass dish and coat with 60 mL (¼ cup) of chili sauce mixture. Cover and marinate for 1–8 hours in the refrigerator (optional if in a hurry). Reserve remaining chili sauce mixture for salad.
- Place oven rack in middle position. Preheat oven to 190 °C (375 °F).
- In a large oven-safe skillet set over medium-high heat, heat oil and brown pork tenderloins for 3 minutes on each side. Continue cooking for about 12–15 minutes or until a thermometer inserted in the centre of the tenderloin reads 60 °C (140 °F) for medium rare. Transfer to a plate and let stand for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, for the salad, add vegetable oil, sesame oil and juice from half the lime to the reserved chili sauce mixture. Cut other half of lime into wedges.
- In a large bowl, mix napa cabbage, carrots, pear and herbs. Drizzle with dressing. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place tenderloins on a cutting board and slice. Serve pork slices warm or cold on the salad. Top with bean sprouts and nuts. Serve with lime wedges.
