The onion in the sweet-tart marinade garnishes the pork. Accompany this dish with a glass of riesling.
Ingredients:
3 cups thinly sliced onion
1 cup thawed orange juice concentrate, undiluted
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 (1-pound) pork tenderloins, trimmed
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 tablespoons water
Directions:
1. Combine first 4 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag; seal. Marinate in refrigerator 2 hours, turning occasionally.
2. Preheat oven to 425°.
3. Remove pork from bag, reserving marinade. Strain marinade through a sieve, reserving solids. Set solids aside; discard liquid. Sprinkle pork evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Heat oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork to pan; cook 3 minutes, turning to brown on all sides. Bake at 425° for 12 minutes or until a thermometer registers 155°. Place pork on a cutting board; cover loosely with foil. Let stand 5 minutes. Cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
4. Combine reserved solids, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and 2 tablespoons water in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook 12 minutes or until onion is browned, stirring occasionally. Serve with pork.
