- 1.
- Preheat oven to 375 F. Salt and pepper tenderloin to taste.
- 2.
- Lay 6-7 pieces of cooking twine 1 apart over a baking sheet.
- Each piece should be long enough to wrap around the tenderloin and tie it; and you should have enough pieces of twine to wrap the entire length of the tenderloin with about an inch or two between each.
- 3.
- Layer half of the orange slices across the center of each piece of twine.
- Top with half of the garlic slices and half of the rosemary sprigs.

- Place the pork tenderloin fatty side down on top of the first orange-garlic-rosemary layer.

- Top the tenderloin with remaining garlic, then rosemary, then orange slices.
- 6.
- Tie twine tightly around tenderloin, making sure to keep all of the orange slices, rosemary and garlic in place.
- 7.
- Bake at 375 F for 45-55 minutes or until pork reaches an internal temperature of 160-165 F. Remove from oven.
- 8.
- Let pork rest for 10-15 minutes after it comes out of the oven.
- 9.
- When pork has rested, cut twine and remove oranges and rosemary sprigs.
- Slice pork and serve immediately.
- Top with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar if youd like to add a colorful touch to the pork, but its just as great without it!
