Roasted Sesame Pork Tenderloin with Asian Slaw

by Kim, courtesy of Southern Living Magazine March 2011

3 Tbsp soy sauce
1/2 cup sesame-ginger dressing, divided
1 lb pork tenderloin
1 head napa cabbage, shredded (about 4 cups)
4 green onions, sliced
2 large carrots, grated
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup chopped wasabi and soy sauce flavored almonds

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Whisk together soy sauce and 1/4 cup dressing in a zip-top freezer bag.  Add pork, turning to coat.  Seal and chill 10 minutes, turning once.

Meanwhile, combine cabbage, next 3 ingredients, and remaining 1/4 cup dressing.  Cover and chill until ready to serve.

Remove pork from marinade, discarding marinade.  Place pork on foil-lined baking sheet.

Bake at 450 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes or until done.  Remove from oven and let stand 5 minutes before slicing.

Toss slaw with almonds and serve with pork.
