I had a taste for some Asian flavors yesterday, so put my thinking cap on, searched around the internet, and eventually decided on this recipe. The original is actually for skewered pork, but I decided to roast my pork tenderloin whole and then spoon the sauce over at the end. I also had neither the time nor enough peanut butter to marinate the pork for the recommended 2-4 hours, so I just skipped that step. My guess is that you'd have a much spicier, richer dish for that step.
Anyway, I started by making a half batch of the sauce, substituting a couple of squirts of Sriracha sauce for the recommended Thai bird chili pepper. This kept the heat in the background and at a level that the Lovely Mina, who is not (yet) a big fan of spicy food, can handle. With that done, I seasoned my smallish pork tenderloin and seared it over medium heat (well, medium on my stove, which is actually pretty hot) for 4 minutes per side. I then finished the meat in a 375 degree oven until the internal temperature hit 150 f. I rested the meat under an aluminum foil tent for 5+ minutes and then sliced. On went the sauce.
In an ideal world I would have served this with some jasmine rice. But, we didn't have any, so I went with some simple pan roasted potatoes and a salad. An ice cold beer on the side completed things.
