Here's what you need:

1 lb. pork tenderloin
½ cup soy sauce
2 cloves, garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. grated fresh gingerroot

1 Tbsp. sesame oil
¼ cup honey
2 Tbsp. brown sugar
4 Tbsp. sesame seeds


Here's how to make it:

Combine soy sauce, ginger and sesame oil in a zip-top plastic bag. Place the pork tenderloin in the bag and let marinate for 2 hours at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator.

 Preheat oven to 375. Mix together honey and brown sugar in a shallow plate (warm the plate to help the honey loosen). Place the sesame seeds in another shallow plate. Remove the pork tenderloin from the marinade and coat with the honey-brown sugar mixture. Then roll the tenderloin in the sesame seeds to coat.

 Roast in a shallow pan for 20 to 30 minutes or until a meat thermometer registers 155. Remove to a serving platter and let stand so the juices will settle and the final internal temperature rises to 160.

 Slice thinly to serve.
