1. Make a long cut in the center of each tenderloin running the length of the meat, stopping about ¼ inch from the bottom. Spread open, gently flatten with the heel of your hand. Place each tenderloin between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound to a ½ inch thickness.
2. Place tenderloin in a 13 by 9 inch glass baking dish. Combine all remaining pork ingredients in a small bowl and pour it over the pork, turning to coat.
3. Heat grill. Remove tenderloins from marinade, shaking off excess. Grill, covered, over medium high heat or coals 5 to 8 minutes or until pale pink in center, turning once. Remove pork, cover loosely with foil and let stand 10 minutes before serving.
NOTE: The pictures above show the pork loin served with a sugar snap pea, radish and cucumber salad with Asian dressing.
