Ginger spiced pork tenderloin is so good!
It's likely you've already tried your fair share of pork tenderloin recipes. However, this particular recipe is a step above the rest. It is brimming with complex flavors that the other options out there simply don't have. Once you try this rendition, you'll never settle for anything else!
Pork tenderloin is a versatile meal because it can be seasoned a variety of ways. If you're looking for a new way to enjoy it, then you simply can't pass this one up. The boldness of ginger coupled with the garlic and pop of flavor for orange zest makes this recipe an instant favorite. The hint of sweetness brings it all together in a way that is absolutely irresistible. This is the type of meal that you can't help but love more and more with each bite that you take.
Of course, the sweetness added to this dish is NOT regular sugar. Instead, it is granulated erythritol which is a sugar alcohol. This option has no carbs or calories which helps keep meals healthier and easier for the body to process.
The prep time for this particular recipe is only a few short minutes. However, the cook time for this dish is over two hours. The longer cook time allows for the tenderloin to soak in the flavors and remain moist and tender. The cook time is well worth the delicious result.
