Roasted Pork Tenderloin With Acorn Squash image

From 'Everyday Food'. I made this using one large pork loin. I felt it needed a bit more hoisin sauce, so I doubled the amount indicated. It was really delicious.

The pork was a bit dry, but the acorn squash was delicious. I think I would try brining the pork next time.
