Ingredients
24 ounces pork tenderloins (2 loins), trimmed¾ cup chicken broth ¼ cup hoisin sauce 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar 1 tablespoon ketchup 2 teaspoons soy sauce 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 2 scallions, sliced thin on bias1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted
Before You Begin
Buy tenderloins that are of equal size and weight so they cook at the same rate; make sure they are no larger than 12 ounces, as bigger tenderloins won’t fit in the skillet together.
Instructions
- Pound tenderloins between 2 sheets of plastic wrap to 1-inch thickness. Pat tenderloins dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Whisk broth, hoisin, sugar, ketchup, and soy sauce together in bowl.
- Heat oil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Cook tenderloins until well browned on both sides and meat registers 140 degrees, about 7 minutes per side. Add hoisin mixture and simmer until slightly thickened, 2 to 5 minutes, turning tenderloins to coat.
- Remove skillet from heat and let pork rest in sauce for 5 minutes, then slice 1/2 inch thick. Serve, drizzled with glaze and sprinkled with scallions and sesame seeds.
