Gochujang Glazed Sesame Pork

In my previous blog post we all enjoyed a healthier holiday cheese board made with a flavorful Lucky Foods SEOUL Gochujang Glaze. Let's continue our healthy holiday theme and move on to the main course taking this versatile glaze to the next level. It's a most impressive meal. Gochujang Glazed Sesame Pork Tenderloin with a grilled stone fruit salad will have you singing happy holidays, but to be honest it is a great every day meal, too. Quick, Easy and filled with fabulous well balanced Asian flavors healthy never tasted so good.

As the cook, you will be in and out of the kitchen in no time flat as the tenderloin soaks up the flavorful Kalbi marinade. Further, the gochujang glaze which literally takes a couple of minutes can be made ahead. So, be the hostess with the mostest. Pour yourself a glass of your favorite beverage and enjoy being with your guests instead of slaving over a hot stove.

This is my second main dish entry in the Lucky Foods Blogger Recipe Challenge. I received a generous amount of their products to create new and exciting recipes.

    Tasty, but the cook time was way off. Needed to nearly double time at 400 to get to safe internal temp. Highly recommend adjusting this.

      Cook times will vary quite a bit depending on the thickness of the meat as well as the calibration on your oven. That's why I recommend using a meat thermometer. Thanks for trying the recipe. I'm glad you found it tasty. I did update the post with additional information.
