Just two bites of this moist, mouthwatering entree, and I asked for the recipe! Low enough in fat to fit my husband’s heart-smart diet, it’s also tasty enough to serve company. —Nancy Kopp of Manhattan, Kansas
Ingredients:
1/2 teaspoon each dried marjoram, oregano and thyme
1/2 teaspoon each garlic powder, seasoned salt, paprika and pepper
2 pork tenderloins (3/4 pound each)
sauce:
1 small onion, chopped
1 teaspoon canola oil
1/2 cup tomato puree
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1 teaspoon dried oregano
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the marjoram, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, seasoned salt, paprika and pepper. Rub over pork. Line a roasting pan with heavy-duty foil; place tenderloins on a rack in prepared pan. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, in a small nonstick saucepan, saute onion in oil until tender. Stir in the remaining sauce ingredients; bring to a boil. Remove from the heat. Set aside 1 cup; keep warm.
3. Spoon half of the remaining sauce over pork. Bake 20-30 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 160°, brushing once more with sauce. Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with reserved sauce. Yield: 6 servings.
