Maple-Orange Pork Tenderloin

Name: Maple-Orange Pork Tenderloin
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 40 min
Yield: 6 servings.
Ingredients: 1/2 cup maple syrup; 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce; 2 tablespoons ketchup; 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard; 1-1/2 teaspoons curry powder; 1-1/2 teaspoons ground coriander; 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce; 1 teaspoon grated orange zest; 2 garlic cloves, minced; 2 pork tenderloins (1 pound each)

A marinade with maple syrup, curry and orange peel gives this lean entree a wonderful glaze and tangy citrusy sauce. It’s a favorite with Penny Fraser of Calgary, Alberta.

Ingredients

1/2 cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1-1/2 teaspoons curry powder
1-1/2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 pork tenderloins (1 pound each)

Directions

In a bowl, combine the first nine ingredients. Pour 2/3 cup into a separate bowl. Add pork; turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Set aside remaining maple mixture until serving.
Drain and discard marinade. Place pork in a roasting pan lined with heavy-duty foil. Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 30-40 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Drizzle with reserved maple mixture.

We did not find this pork as flavorful as I hoped.

My family loves this pork dish! I like to use a pork sirloin roast instead of the tenderloins. The recipe is easy to prepare and always turns out great.

I make this recipe frequently when we have dinner guests. It is extremely tasty and easy to prepare. I marinate the night before and then just pop it in the oven, keeping me out of the kitchen when we have guests.

Very easy recipe to put together and the meat stayed really moist and flavourful. The only change I made was to glaze the meat while baking with the extra sauce and spooning over the pan juices to serve.
