Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 pounds pork tenderloin

  • 1 cup chicken broth

  • ½ cup teriyaki sauce

  • ¼ cup brown sugar

  • ½ large onion, sliced

  • 4 cloves garlic, chopped

  • 3 fresh red chile peppers, chopped, or to taste

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown tenderloins on all sides, about 10 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, mix together chicken broth, teriyaki sauce, and brown sugar in a bowl. Stir in onion, garlic, red chile peppers, and black pepper.

  3. Put browned tenderloins in a slow cooker and cover with teriyaki sauce mixture. Cook on Low for about 4 hours, turning 2 to 3 times during cooking time to ensure even doneness. The internal temperature of tenderloins should reach 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

  4. Remove tenderloins from the slow cooker and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Spoon liquid over slices when serving, if desired.
