What You’ll Need
- 2 Prairie Fresh® Natural pork tenderloins
- 1 bottle bulgogi marinade Korean BBQ sauce
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 1-ounce fresh ginger root, peeled and sliced
- 1 ½ ounces palm sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups jasmine rice
- 15-20 wooden skewers
- ¼ cup fried garlic
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- fresh cilantro, Thai basil or sweet basil, optional for garnish
Directions
- Slice pork tenderloins in half. Slice tenderloins lengthwise into 1/2" thick strips. Each tenderloin should yield 6-8 strips.
- Place pork slices between parchment paper and pound until approximately 1/4" thick.
- Place pork in a zip-close bag, add 1 bottle of bulgogi marinade. Marinate 12 to 24 hours in refrigerator.
- Soak wooden skewers in water for 1 hour before grilling to prevent burning.
- In a saucepan, combine 3 cups water, 1/2 cup coconut cream, palm sugar, ginger and salt. Simmer on medium-low heat for 20-30 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Remove ginger slices from broth.
- Cook jasmine rice according to package directions, replacing the water with the ginger coconut cream broth.
- Using two wooden skewers parallel to each other, skewer marinated pork pieces. This will help keep pork flat while grilling.
- Grill pork over direct heat 2-3 minutes on each side or until internal temperature reaches 145 F and pork is well-charred.
- Serve grilled bulgogi pork over rice and garnish with fried garlic and basil (or cilantro), drizzle with remaining coconut cream and soy sauce.
