Marmalade-Glazed Pork Tenderloin

Submitted by heather in Ont

"This is a fast and easy way to prepare pork tenderloin. You can use apricot jam in place of the marmalade. I saw this recipe being cooked on a morning TV show about 5 years ago. I believe it is from the Pantry Raid cookbook. I like to serve this with Balsamic-Orange Couscous."
