5. Transfer tenderloin to prepared baking sheet/dish and roast for 10-15 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the pork loin, registers 70 C degrees.
6. Brush with leftover marinade and broil on HIGH for 1-2 minutes until golden.  Remove from oven, cover with foil and let rest a few minutes.  
7. Brush marinade over the top of pork tenderloin and sprinkle, slice and serve.
