Place skillet in oven and roast pork until thermometer inserted into center registers 145°F to 150°F, about 25 minutes.

To prevent spoilage, place kumquats in resealable plastic bag lined with paper towels and chill. They'll stay fresh up to two weeks.
Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese
Malbec, Pinot Noir, and Sangiovese are great choices for Pork Tenderloin. 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 Vinan Alicia Las Compuertas Malbec with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 27 dollars per bottle.
