Instructions
Preheat broiler and line rack of a broiler pan with foil.
Whisk together mustard and jam in a small bowl.
Whisk together 1/3 cup mustard mixture with garlic in a large bowl.
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.
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.
Transfer pork to a cutting board (leave apricots on pan) and let stand 5 minutes.
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).
Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese
Pork Tenderloin on the menu? Try pairing with Malbec, Pinot Noir, and Sangiovese. Pinot noir's light body is great for lean cuts, medium bodied sangiovese complement meaty sauces, stews, and other multi-ingredient dishes, and full-bodied tannic malbec pairs with fatty cuts and barbecue. The Bodega Norton Malbec Reserva with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 20 dollars per bottle.
