Brown the pork tenderloin on all sides before baking–this gives the meat a nice sear and seals in the rich flavor. Top with apricot chutney, made from store-bought jam, rice vinegar, mustard seed, and fresh ginger.
Hosting a cookout? Make these beer-flavored chops to serve with grilled onions and chilled coleslaw. Marinating and brushing chops with dark heavy beer, honey mustard, and garlic intensifies flavor and seals in moist juices.
Wide rice noodles are available on the ethnic-foods aisle at most major supermarkets and at Asian grocers. If you can't find them, any rice noodle or even spaghetti will work in this dish. You can also use ground sirloin, if you can't find pork.
