About this recipe

Are you in the mood for a flavorful, gluten-free, and dairy-free meal that's ready in just 20 minutes? Look no further than this Cinnamon Pork Tenderloin recipe, perfect for lunch, dinner, or even a main course. With a caloric content of only 156 kcal per serving, this dish is not only delicious but also guilt-free.

The star of this recipe is the pork tenderloin, a lean and tender cut that absorbs the rich marinade like a charm. The marinade itself is a symphony of flavors, featuring reduced-sodium soy sauce, sherry (or chicken broth for a non-alcoholic option), brown sugar, honey, ground cinnamon, and minced garlic. These ingredients come together to create a sweet, savory, and slightly spicy profile that will have your taste buds dancing with joy.

To ensure the pork is cooked to perfection, we recommend using a grill and a kitchen thermometer. The grill adds a smoky flavor and a nice char to the tenderloin, while the thermometer guarantees that the pork reaches an internal temperature of 160°F for optimal tenderness and safety. After grilling, let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing – this simple step makes all the difference in retaining moisture and flavor.

So, gather your ingredients, fire up the grill, and get ready to impress your family and friends with this Cinnamon Pork Tenderloin. It's a recipe that promises to become a staple in your gluten-free and dairy-free meal rotation. Happy cooking!
