Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup 3/4 orange marmalade

  • 2 Tbsp 2 Dijon-style mustard

  • 1 Tbsp 1 canola oil

  • 3 cloves 3 garlic, minced

  • 2 Tbsp 2 finely chopped fresh rosemary

  • 2 2 pork tenderloins (each about 10 oz)

Directions

  •  Prepare the marinade in a small microwaveable bowl, microwave marmalade, mustard and canola oil, uncovered, on Medium (50%) power for 1 to 2 minutes, or until marmalade is melted. Stir in garlic and rosemary.
  • In a resealable plastic freezer bag set in bowl, combine marinade and pork. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or for up to 2 days, turning occasionally. Drain and discard marinade.
  • Preheat oven to 400 °F. Place pork tenderloins in prepared baking pan so they are not touching. Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until meat thermometer reaches 160 °F or just a hint of pink remains inside. Let stand for 5 minutes, covered lightly with foil, before serving. Slice across the grain.

Notes

  • To prevent the thin tip of pork tenderloin from drying, turn it under before baking. Tenderloin can be frozen in the marinade for up to 2 months, thawed in the refrigerator overnight and then grilled.

This will definitely be a hit at your next picnic or backyard party.

Falafel, crispy vegetarian patties made of chickpeas, garlic, onion and spices make an easy, inexpensive dinner or unique party food - serve small falafel balls with tzatziki for dipping. With its neutral flavor and high smoke point, canola oil is ideal for cooking falafel; traditionally they are cooked in a hot skillet, but these are brushed with canola oil and roasted at high heat, creating a crisp exterior.

The summer season is here! Time to light up the flames under some mean, tasty food. Of course, no summer get-together is complete without some skewers thrown on to a grill. For this dish, I recommend using lean, top sirloin steak cuts for a healthier red meat option, mixed up with some colorful vegetables. The marinade fuses the Latin flavors of aji, cilantro and lime with the Asian flavors of the soy sauce. The low saturated fat content of canola oil allows the marinade to stay free-flowing in the refrigerator.
