Rosemary Orange Pork Tenderloin
Ingredients
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
  • 3 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 2 (3/4 pound) whole pork tenderloins
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Create the vibrant orange marinade by combining the freshly squeezed orange juice, soy sauce, fragrant rosemary sprigs, and minced garlic in a bowl. Whisk everything together until the ingredients are well incorporated.
2
Place the pork tenderloin in a shallow dish and pour over the marinade, ensuring it's fully coated. Allow the meat to absorb the flavors for at least one hour or even overnight, which will result in a more tender and flavorful final product.
3
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (that's 205 degrees Celsius for those using metric measurements). Remove the pork tenderloin from the marinade, reserving the remaining liquid for later use.
4
Season the pork tenderloin with salt and pepper to taste, taking care not to overdo it.
5
Place the pork tenderloin on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and put it in the oven to roast for approximately 20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches a safe minimum of 145 degrees Fahrenheit (that's 63 degrees Celsius).
6
While the pork is cooking, strain the reserved marinade and transfer it to a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
7
Serve the pork tenderloin with the reserved marinade as a delicious and savory sauce.
