Ingredients

• 1/4 cup mirin
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup rice vinegar
• 2 tbsp. light brown sugar
• 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
• 2 scallions, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup plus 1 tbsp. vegetable oil
• 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
• One 3-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
• 2 pork tenderloins
• 1 1/2 lbs. broccolini
• 1 tsp salt
• White rice, for serving

Directions

1. Whisk the mirin, soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, scallions, 1/4 cup vegetable oil and two-thirds of the garlic and ginger in a 9×13-inch baking dish. Add the pork and turn to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.

2. Heat a grill to medium high. Remove the pork from the marinade, allowing the excess to drip off. Transfer the marinade to a small saucepan, bring to a boil over high heat and boil to reduce slightly, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.

3. Meanwhile, grill the pork, turning occasionally, until cooked through, 20-30 minutes. Remove to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes.

4. Heat the remaining 1 tbsp. vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining garlic and ginger and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the broccolini along with 3/4 cup water and the salt. Cover and steam until the broccolini is bright green and crisp-tender, 5-6 minutes.

5. Slice the pork and serve with the broccolini and rice. Drizzle the reduce marinade on top.
