  • Yield

    Serves 8

Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup chopped onion
5 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 cups dry red wine
3/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped peeled fresh ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
3 14- to 16-ounce pork tenderloins
3 medium peaches, blanched in boiling water 1 minute, peeled, pitted, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat oil in heavy medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and sugar. Sauté until onion is golden, about 6 minutes. Mix in wine and next 5 ingredients. Cook 1 minute longer. Remove from heat. Cool sauce completely.

    Step 2

    Place pork in large resealable plastic bag. Pour 1 cup sauce over pork. Seal and refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight, turning meat occasionally. Cover remaining sauce separately and refrigerate.

    Step 3

    Prepare barbecue (medium heat). Remove pork from marinade; discard marinade. Grill pork until meat thermometer inserted into center registers 155°F, turning often, about 35 minutes.

    Step 4

    Meanwhile, boil remaining sauce in heavy medium saucepan until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Add peaches. Stir until heated through, about 1 minute. Slice pork and arrange on platter. Spoon some sauce over. Top with chives. Pass remaining sauce separately.
