Ingredients
    2 (1 1/2 lb) pork tenderloin
    2 tablespoons canola oil
    salt & freshly ground black pepper
    Guava Glaze
    1 cup guava jelly or 1 cup apricot jam
    1/4 cup Dijon mustard
    1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
    salt & freshly ground black pepper
    Orange-Habanero Mojo
    2 tablespoons canola oil
    1 small red onion, finely chopped
    4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
    1/2 cup fresh lime juice
    3 cups freshly squeezed orange juice
    1/2 habanero pepper, seeded and finely chopped
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
    1 teaspoon cumin seed
    salt & freshly ground black pepper
Preparation
    Preheat a grill to high.
    Brush pork with oil, and then season it with salt and pepper. Set aside a few tablespoons of the Guava Glaze for brushing the cooked pork. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes per side, brushing frequently with the Guava Glaze. Remove from the grill, brush again with glaze and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice into 1/2-inch thick slices, drizzle with the Orange-Habanero Mojo, and serve immediately.
    Guava Glaze: Whisk jelly, mustard, and orange juice together in a small bowl. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
    Orange-Habanero Mojo: Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add lime juice, orange juice, and habanero chile and bring to a boil. Cook until reduced by half. Whisk in the cilantro and cumin and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Drizzle over pork.
