PHILIPPINE GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Cut the pork into 1/2 inch thick medallions. You should have about 12 slices.
• Mix together the vinegar, soy sauce, garlic and pepper. Add the pork slices and let marinade 4 to 5 hours (or overnight) in the refrigerator, turning occasionally.
• Preheat the broiler. Broil the medallions 7 minutes on each side about 4 inces from the flame. (These are also delicious on a grill; cook over a medium fire 5 minutes on each side, then 10 minutes covered.).
• While the pork is cooking, bring the marinade to a boil in a small saucepan, add the hot pepper flakes, then reduce by one quarter. Strain and serve as a dipping sauce with the meat.
