Step 1

Mix together kosher salt, coarse ground pepper, garlic powder, and ground cinnamon. Rub the spice mixture over the 1 pound pork tenderloin. Place the tenderloin in a pan, cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Put honey, soy sauce, olive oil, hoisin sauce, minced onion, minced garlic, sesame seed oil, and crushed red peppers in a sauce pan, whisk together, and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring often.

Step 3

In a small bowl, stir together cold water and cornstarch and then slowly whisk into the sauce. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until thickened.

Step 4

Put 1/4 cup of the sauce in a small bowl to bring out to the grill and set the rest aside.

Step 5

Remove the pork tenderloin from the fridge and cut it into 1/2 thick slices. Brush the grill grates with vegetable oil and then cook the pork tenderloin medallions over high heat for 3 minutes on each side. Brush the pork tenderloin with the 1/4 cup of honey sesame sauce in the small bowl and grill an additional minute on each side to caramelize the sauce.

Step 6

The pork is fully cooked once it has reached an internal temperature of 155˚F-160˚F.

Step 7

Before serving, top the pork tenderloin with the remaining sauce and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
