Tips:

  • Choose a tenderloin that is about 1 pound in weight. This will ensure that it cooks evenly and remains juicy.
  • Make sure the tenderloin is trimmed of all fat and silver skin. This will help the glaze adhere to the meat and prevent it from becoming tough.
  • Score the tenderloin with a sharp knife. This will help the glaze penetrate the meat and create a more flavorful dish.
  • Marinate the tenderloin in the citrus glaze for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and create a delicious crust.
  • Cook the tenderloin over medium-high heat. This will help to caramelize the glaze and create a beautiful golden brown color.
  • Baste the tenderloin with the citrus glaze every few minutes. This will help to keep the meat moist and prevent it from drying out.
  • Let the tenderloin rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat and create a more tender dish.

Conclusion:

Pork tenderloin with citrus glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The tenderloin is cooked to perfection and the citrus glaze adds a bright and flavorful touch. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
