Made this using pork steaks instead of the tenderloin. This type of cut created an abundance of pan drippings. I was unsure how much to add to the sauce mixture so I used a 1/3 - 2/3 mixture ratio with the pan drippings and the orange juice. We had expected a bitter flavor from the orange sauce but we were surprised by the sweetness. We LOVED it! Will be making it again!
