All you need to do is, marinade the pork in the required liquid mixture and then grill or bake it. Here are such easy recipes for you.

Orange Maple Marinated Pork Loin Recipe

Ingredients: Salt, ½ teaspoon Pork loin (boneless, trimmed), 3½ pounds Stone ground mustard, 3 tablespoons Garlic cloves (minced), 4 Fresh basil (chopped), 2½ tablespoons

Maple syrup, ⅔ cup Fresh ground black pepper, ¾ teaspoon Low sodium soy sauce, 2½ tablespoons Orange rind (grated), 2 teaspoons Fresh orange juice (about 3 oranges), 1⅓ cups

Procedure: Take a large bowl and add all the ingredients to it, except the pork loin and salt. Stir the mixture properly with the help of a whisk. Now, measure 2 cups of the orange mixture and pour it over the pork. Seal this in a zip-top bag and refrigerate for 8 hours.

Then, preheat the oven to 350 °F and remove the marinated pork from the bag. Separate the marinade and pour it into a large saucepan. Bring the marinade mixture to a boil; then reduce the heat and cook until it measures one cup. Stir the mixture in between and cook for about 20 minutes.

Now, use a cooking spray to coat a rack and then place the pork over this rack. Take a shallow roasting pan and keep the rack in it. Apply salt to the pork and bake it in the preheated oven for one hour. Baste the pork occasionally with reduced marinade.

Without removing the pan from the oven, pour half cup of water to the bottom of the pan. Bake the pork for 45 more minutes and baste it occasionally with marinade. After 45 minutes, remove the pork from oven and cover it with a foil. Let it cool for 10 minutes and then slice it to serve.

Pork Tenderloin Marinade Recipe

Ingredients: Pork tenderloin, 1½ pounds Garlic cloves (minced), 3 Sesame oil, 1 teaspoon Maple syrup, 1 cup Fresh grounded black pepper to taste Mustard, 2 tablespoons

Procedure: Take a medium-sized bowl and add the sesame oil, minced garlic, maple syrup, and mustard to it. Combine the ingredients properly. Then, take a shallow dish and place the pork in it. Pour the marinade to coat the pork entirely. Seal the pork and marinade into a plastic bag and let it refrigerate for at least 8 hours.

After that, preheat the oven at 350 °F. Take the pork out from the marinade and keep it aside. Pour the marinade in a saucepan and cook it over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Take a grate and brush it with oil, then place the pork over it. Grill the pork for 15-25 minutes with occasional basting of marinade.
