http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Maple-Garlic-Marinated-Pork-Tenderloin/Detail.aspx
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil (I used olive oil)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- fresh ground black pepper to taste
- 1 cup maple syrup
- 1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin
Directions
- Combine mustard, sesame oil, garlic, pepper, and maple syrup. Place pork in a shallow dish and coat thoroughly with marinade. Cover, then chill in the refrigerator at least eight hours, or overnight.
- Preheat oven for 375.
- Remove pork from marinade, and set aside. Transfer remaining marinade to a small saucepan, and cook on the stove over medium-low heat for 5 minutes.
- Bake for 45 minutes basting with reserved marinade or until interior is no longer pink. Cook pork until it reaches an internal temperature of 155. Let sit for 10 minutes and it will achieve the desired 160 degrees. Serve with left over heated marinade drizzled over it.
