Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 F.
To prepare pork, combine first 4 ingredients; rub evenly over pork. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add pork; cook 3 minutes on each side or until browned. Remove from pan; wrap pork in foil. Place in a 13x9 inch baking dish. Bake a 350 F for 25 minutes or until thermometer registers 160 (slightly pink). Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
To prepare marmalade, heat 2 tablespoons butter in skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook 8 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Add dried apricots; cook 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in water, scraping bottom of pan to loosen browned bits. Stir in 2 cups broth and remaining ingredients; bring to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes or until liquid almost evaporates. Serve marmalade with pork.
