How to Make Apricot Glazed Pork Tenderloin

1. Preheat your broiler.
2. Position the rack 4 inches from the broiler element.
3. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
4. Rub the pork tenderloin (approximately 1.5 lbs) with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
5. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
6. Broil for 10 minutes.
7. In a small saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup apricot jam and 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard.
8. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the jam melts and the sauce slightly thickens (about 3-5 minutes).
9. Remove from heat.
10. Transfer half of the sauce (about 1/4 cup) to a small bowl for brushing.
11. Cover the saucepan to keep the remaining sauce warm.
12. Remove the pork tenderloin from the broiler.
13. Brush generously with the reserved apricot glaze.
14. Return the pork tenderloin to the broiler. Continue broiling, brushing with additional glaze every 2-3 minutes, until the pork is nicely browned in spots and registers an internal temperature of 150°F (66°C) on an instant-read thermometer (approximately 10-15 more minutes).
15. Remove the pork from the broiler. Cover loosely with foil and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
16. Slice the pork tenderloin into medallions and drizzle with the warm apricot glaze. Serve immediately and enjoy!
