Quick Marinated Pork Tenderloin

I found this recipe someplace online over a year ago and tweaked it to taste. VERY EASY, very juicy and goes great with green beans and applesauce.
I "eye-ball" measure when I cook this sort of thing, so the measurements given for the marinade ingredients should be to your taste (but DON'T use less Hoison than listed- this is the main taste of the dish!)
This has become the recipe everyone who comes over for dinner wants me to make....and it is SO EASY!
(BTW-you can find Hoison sauce in the asian area of your grocery store-it will be by the soy sauce, teriyaki and other asian sauces and seasonings)Submitted by: KELLYCHICAGO

My family loved this dish.....I cooked the cabbage (the recipe didn't specify if it was to be cooked or not) and added shredded cabbage to the meat mixture right before adding the sauce. BTW I used ground turkey (I had it on hand). So yummy!!!!!! - 1/3/15
