Description
This ginger lime pork tenderloin is so healthy and easy to make!
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp. fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped or grated
- 2 Tbsp. soy sauce
- 1 lime, zested and juiced
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil, plus extra 1 Tbsp. for searing
- 2 Tbsp. grill seasoning
- 1 (about 1 lb.) pork tenderloin
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Trim pork tenderloin of any excess fat, and remove silver skin. (For a helpful video on how to remove silver skin, see here.)
- Combine ginger, soy sauce, lime juice and zest, (2 Tbsp.) oil and grill seasoning in a large sealable plastic bag. Add pork tenderloin to marinade and coat evenly. Let stand 15-30 minutes (or more).
- Heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove tenderloin from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Generously season with extra grill seasoning if desired. Add to the skillet and cook, turning as needed, for 4 to 5 minutes (about 1 minute per side), until evenly browned. Transfer tenderloin to a greased baking dish, and brush some of the reserved marinade evenly over the tenderloin. Place the dish in the oven to roast for 12 to 15 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the tenderloin reads 140 degrees. Remove dish from oven and transfer the tenderloin to a plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm.
- Cut the tenderloin into slices, and lay out on a plate to serve.

Hey Allison! This site is really great! Mom has been telling me to check it out for months, and I finally remembered to look. I’m both impressed and inspired. Not sure which dish to try first. Now that you have taught me how to trim a tenderloin, I might be brave enough to tackel something besides chicken or beef. I’ll let you know how it turns out.

I just made this for dinner tonight, and it was perfect. So flavorful and so tender. Yum!!! I didn’t have a lime, so I used 2 tbsp. of lime juice. Can’t wait to make it again. Jeff was very impressed.
I love port tenderloin, sounds yummy, thanks
This sounds great! Would love to try this recipe but a bit confused.
You mentioned “steak seasoning” and “grill seasoning” ….
not sure what those are. Dry rubs? Steak sauce? Favorite BBQ sauce?
Thanks!
Sorry to be a pest, but how many servings does this recipe make?
Extraordinary! The flavor is delicious and it was quick and easy. I’m ready to make it again!
