Slow Cooker Teriyaki Pork

Some of my favorite recipes use a slow cooker.  I've made sauce from scratch and even dessert. I like to serve Teriyaki Pork with a light Healthy Mushroom Stroganoff or Grilled Eggplant.

Slow Cooker Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin
Servings: 8

Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds pork tenderloin
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
4 cloves garlic, chopped
3 fresh red chile pepper, finely chopped
1/2 large onion, sliced
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown tenderloins on all sides, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, mix together teriyaki sauce, chicken broth, and brown sugar in a bowl. Stir in garlic, red chile pepper, onion, and black pepper.

Put browned tenderloins into slow cooker, cover with the teriyaki sauce mixture. Cook on High for about 4 hours, turning 2 to 3 times during the cooking time to ensure even doneness.

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