Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 one pound pork tenderloins
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup green onions -- sliced
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic -- minced
1/2 cup orange marmalade -- divided
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup low sodium chicken broth


Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Trim fat from tenderloins. Cut them lengthwise down the center,cutting halfway through the meat but not cutting all the way through.

In a small bowl, combine the mustard, green onions,rosemary, tarragon, pepper and garlic. Spread the mustard mixture on the cut surfaces of the tenderloin.

Reshape the tenderloin and tie, if desired. Place it on a rack in a shallow roasting pan brush with 4 tbsp. of marmalade.

Bake at 400 F. for 40-50 minutes until tender, or until a meat thermometer registers 160 F. For the sauce, combine remaining 4 tbsp. marmalade, water and broth in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat. Simmer 5-10 minutes, or until thickened.

To serve, slice the tenderloin and spoon the sauce over.
