Ingredients

  • 0.5 cup apricot preserves 
  • pound apricots fresh pitted quartered
  • 0.5 teaspoon pepper black
  •  garlic clove 
  • 0.5 cup grainy mustard 
  • small pork tenderloins ()
  • 0.8 teaspoon salt 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • frying pan
  • whisk
  • kitchen thermometer
  • aluminum foil
  • broiler
  • cutting board
  • broiler pan

Directions

  1. Preheat broiler and line rack of a broiler pan with foil.
  2. Whisk together mustard and jam in a small bowl.
  3. Whisk together 1/3 cup mustard mixture with garlic in a large bowl.
  4. Pat pork dry, then sprinkle all over with teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Coat pork with 2 tablespoons mustard-garlic mixture, then arrange without crowding on broiler pan.
  5. Toss apricots and remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper with remaining mustard-garlic mixture. Arrange apricots in 1 layer around pork (including space between tenderloins) and broil 5 to 6 inches from heat, turning pork over once, until thermometer inserted diagonally into center of each tenderloin registers 145°F and apricots are softened, about 15 minutes.
  6. Transfer pork to a cutting board (leave apricots on pan) and let stand 5 minutes.
  7. Cut pork crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices and transfer to a platter. Spoon apricots over pork and serve remaining mustard-jam mixture on the side (sweeten with additional jam if desired).
