This flavorful main course is a great company offering. The tenderloin tastes wonderful and looks so pretty when it's sliced to reveal a golden apricot center. In the 15 years I've been using this recipe, it has never failed me.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pork turned out great! It was juicy and flavorful, and the apricots added a nice sweetness. I served it with roasted potatoes and asparagus, and it was a delicious meal.
