Ingredients
16 oz. pork tenderloin11 T apricot nectar, unsweetened, divided1/3 cup thinly sliced green onion3 T gluten-free soy sauce or tamari sauce2 T olive oil1 T grated fresh ginger root1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
Directions
Place the pork in a large seal-able plastic bag. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup nectar, green onion, soy sauce, oil, ginger root, cinnamon, and cayenne. Pour mixture into the bag, seal tightly, and refrigerate at least 4 hours to overnight, rotating the bag occasionally.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place the marinated pork directly on a nonstick baking pan. Discard the bag and marinade. Roast for 20 minutes or until cooked through, but very slightly pink in the middle. Allow to stand at least 5 minutes before slicing.

Cut the pork into 24 slices. Fan out 6 slices per plate. Drizzle with remaining nectar and garlic with green onion, if desired.
