MICROWAVE PORK TENDERLOIN – STEPS:

1. Place pork tenderloin into a large bag.
2. Mix ingredients in a bowl, open bag and pour the ingredients on to the pork.
3. Properly seal the bag “zipper”. Ensure it is tightly closed.
4. Lay the filled bag on a microwavable plate and place in microwave.
5. Approximate cooking time is between 5-7 minutes for a 1000w microwave.
6. When done, remove the plate/bag using oven mitts. Let stand for 1 minute.  If not sufficiently cooked reseal the bag and continue cooking in 30 second increments.
7. Carefully open the bag and place the pork on the plate using tongs.
8. Pour any remaining seasonings and or liquid over the plated food.

IMPORTANT: Handle carefully: hot steam or liquid escapes from the sides and top of bag. For frozen tenderloin increase cook time by 3 1/2 – 4 1/2 minutes.
