Recipe Instructions:

In a bowl, combine soy sauce, dry red wine, brown sugar, honey, cinnamon, chopped green onion, and minced garlic cloves. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Place the pork tenderloin in the marinade, ensuring it is completely coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or for optimal flavor, marinate overnight, turning the meat occasionally to ensure even coating.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
Drain the marinated pork tenderloin, reserving the marinade for basting later.
Place the marinated pork tenderloin on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. This allows for even cooking and prevents the meat from sitting in its juices.
Bake the pork tenderloin in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until it is no longer pink in the center. Remember to turn and baste the tenderloin occasionally with the reserved marinade to enhance the flavor and keep it moist.
Once cooked, remove the pork tenderloin from the oven and allow it to cool slightly.
Transfer the pork tenderloin to a cutting board and cut it into diagonal slices for a visually appealing presentation.
Garnish the sliced pork tenderloin with additional chopped green onions for a fresh burst of flavor.
Serve your oven-baked barbecued pork tenderloin hot and enjoy the tender, juicy goodness with your loved ones!

Tips:

For added flavor, you can sprinkle some sesame seeds on top before serving.
Don’t discard the leftover marinade! You can simmer it in a saucepan until it thickens slightly, then drizzle it over the sliced pork tenderloin for an extra flavor boost.
Pair this dish with your favorite sides such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a crisp green salad for a complete meal experience.
