This pork tenderloin recipe is from the Italian cookbook, Silver Spoon. It's delicious and really, really easy. The Italian name is Arrosto all'Arancia.

It serves 6 to 8. You can easily change the serving size by changing the size of the tenderloin.

Ingredients

- 2 & 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 & 1/2 cups orange juice, strained
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 1 garlic clove, diced
- pinch of chili powder
- pinch of oregano
- salt & pepper

Directions

1. Heat oven to 350°

2. Melt butter in a pan, and add orange juice, orange zest, garlic, chili powder and oregano. Season with salt and pepper, and mix well.

3. Let the meat set outside the refrigerator for half an hour, then rub with salt and pepper, and place in a roasting pan. (If you use a ceramic dish, you may have to change the cooking time.)

4. Pour in the juice mixture and baste the tenderloin. 

5. Roast the tenderloin for about 1 & 1/2 hours, basting frequently.

6. Carve and serve with the cooking juices.
