Orange Glazed Pork Tenderloin
This Orange Glazed Pork Tenderloin requires such simple ingredients, yet the results are so divine and mouthwatering. (Jump to Recipe)
The pork tenderloin is that cut of meat that reminds me of the chicken breast. It can be dressed up nicely and the reward for those few minutes is so worth it!
I’ve created a marinade that gives it a punch of flavor and the orange zest for garnish seals the deal! This pork tenderloin is great served alongside roasted maple butternut squash and brussels sprouts on a chilly night like this.
