Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pork tenderloin (about 1 pound each)
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon fennel pollen or crushed fennel seeds
pinch of crushed red pepper
1/2 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons paprika

Steps:

  • 1 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Oil a baking pan just large enough to hold the pork. 2 Fold the thin ends of the tenderloins under to make an even thickness. Place the tenderloins about an inch apart in the pan. 3 In a small bowl, stir together the honey, salt, fennel pollen, and crushed red pepper. Brush the mixture over the meat. Place the pork in the oven and roast 15 minutes. 4 Pour the orange juice around the meat. Roast 10 to 20 minutes more, or until browned and tender. (Pork is done when the internal temperature reaches 150°F on an instant-read thermometer.) Transfer the pork to a cutting board. Cover with foil and keep warm while preparing the sauce. 5 Place the baking pan over medium heat. Stir in the paprika and cook, scraping the bottom of the pan, for 2 minutes. 6 Slice the pork and serve it with the sauce. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone.
