Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 large tangerine
1 large clove garlic
1 sprig rosemary to yield 1 teaspoon chopped, or 1/2 teaspoon dried
2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon dry vermouth
8 ounces pork tenderloin

Steps:

If using a broiler instead of a stove-top grill, turn on broiler and cover broiler pan with double thickness of aluminum foil.
Grate rind from tangerine, and squeeze tangerine to yield 1/2 cup juice; put into bowl large enough to hold the pork.
Mince garlic; chop rosemary leaves; add to bowl with sugar, Worcestershire sauce and vermouth, and mix well.
Wash, dry and slice tenderloin into 1/2-inch-thick slices, and stir into marinade.
Prepare stove-top grill if using. Arrange slices of pork on grill or broiler. Brush with marinade. Grill or broil pork for a couple of minutes; brush with marinade, turn and continue cooking until pork is slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes. Bring remaining marinade to boil, and spoon over pork slices on plates.
