Instructions

Place the pineapple juice, sweet chili sauce, tempura sauce, fish sauce, cilantro, green onions, garlic, ginger and green curry paste into a blender and blend until smooth. Cut the pork into 1½" by 2" chunks and place into a large bowl. Pour half of marinade evenly over pork and mix well to coat pork. Cover the pork with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 hours. Reserve the other half of marinade in a bowl, cover and refrigerate to use as a sauce for the pork. 

Preheat grill to high heat. Spray grill with non-stick cooking spray and grill pork for 3 to 4 minutes on each side achieving a nice char. Discard the marinade that had the raw pork in it. Remove pork from the grill and place on a serving platter; use the reserved marinade as a sauce. Serve with rice and vegetables.
