Instructions

Step 1

In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together vinegar, orange juice, mustard, maple syrup, olive oil, garlic, orange zest, rosemary, salt and pepper.

Step 2

Place pork tenderloins side-by-side, but not touching, in a glass or ceramic baking dish. Sprinkle fresh cranberries around pork. Pour sauce evenly over pork and cranberries. Spoon sauce over pork to make sure it’s evenly coated with sauce. Roast, uncovered, at 400°F for 20 minutes. Carefully remove baking dish from oven and baste pork generously with sauce. Return pork to oven and roast for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, depending on size and thickness of pork. It’s okay for pork to be a little pink in the middle.

Step 3

Let pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Slice into 1/2-inch-thick pieces and arrange on serving platter. Give the sauce and berries a quick stir, then spoon over pork. Serve hot.
