Ingredients
- 1 Large Gluten Free Pork Tenderloin This marinade makes enough for 2 small Pork Tenderloins or 1 Large Tenderloin
- ½ Cup Orange Juice
- ⅓ Cup lemon juice Fresh or bottled
- ½ Cup Chicken Broth
- 2 Tablespoon Honey
- 1 Tablespoon Gluten Free Soy Sauce
- 2 teaspoons Ginger Freshly grated of from tube
- 1 teaspoon Yellow Mustard
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic Fresh or from jar
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- Salt & Pepper
Instructions
- Gather the ingredients (please note: Chicken Broth is not pictured).
- Trim excess fat from tenderloin, rinse and pat with paper towels to remove excess water. Place in a large resealable plastic bag. Set aside.
Making the Marinade
- In a large bowl, combine the next 8 ingredients and mix well.
- Pour marinade over the tenderloin in the plastic bag, seal tightly and refrigerate for at least 8 hours (I usually place this in a baking dish or large bowl, so I can turn it over easily and to prevent any leaking).
- When ready to bake, preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and set aside.
- Remove the tenderloin from the bag and place on the baking sheet. Brush with the Olive Oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper on all sides.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes, depending on the size of tenderloin. Inside temperature should measure at least 125 degrees (I cook mine to 145 degrees).
- Serve with rice or potatoes and a veggie for a quick and easy meal!
