Teriyaki Grilled Pork Tenderloin and Grill Pan Vegetables -Homemade Teriyaki Sauce & Barbie's 4th of July

My crew is in agreement, the best way to cook a tenderloin is on the grill, and we have several different types of homemade marinades here on PIM. But an old favorite is this Teriyaki Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Grill Pan Vegetables. Once you make a homemade teriyaki sauce, I don't think you'll ever go back to the bottle folks:@) And I do like to leave the meat marinate overnight, longer is better! As for what vegetables to grill, peppers and onions are a must, from there anything goes... Zucchini, yellow squash and broccoli are all good options.

This truly was a lovely meal,

and a nice way to use up some snow peas from the garden:@)

Teriyaki Sauce
1/4 C soy sauce
1/4 C vegetable oil
1 clove garlic, minced-I use a garlic press
1 tsp ground ginger-Pick up a new jar if you've had it for a while
1 Tblsp molasses
~Mix well

For Dinner:

One unflavored pork tenderloin

3 large bell peppers, colors of choice, large chopped

1 large sweet onion, large chopped

1 small zucchini, 1/2" chunks

20 oz can pineapple chunks, drained

handful snow peas, optional

1. Add teriyaki sauce to large zip top bag and add tenderloin. Place in refrigerator for at least 4 hours and preferably overnight.
2. Heat grill to medium high.
3. Remove meat from bag, place on plate. Add vegetables to bag and coat in sauce.
4. Grill meat: Think of it as a rectangle, 4 minutes on each side. Remove to carving platter, cover with foil for 10 minutes.
5. Towards end of cooking time add vegetables to heated grill pan. Stir occasionally until cooked to your desired level of doneness.
6. Add veggies to serving platter, add carved meat and pour any juices over everything.

And Barbie hopes you have a nice place

to cool off this 4th of July too:@)
