Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450°. Place a baking sheet inside the oven.

For the pork, cut tenderloin in half lengthwise, then cut halves into ten 1–2-inch pieces. Pat pieces dry with a paper towel and season with salt, pepper, and granulated garlic.

Place flour, eggs, and cornflakes in three separate shallow dishes. Toss pork pieces in flour to coat, dip into egg, then dredge in corn flakes; brush pieces with butter.

Transfer pork pieces to preheated baking sheet and bake until golden, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the pieces registers 145°, 7–9 minutes.

For the glaze, sauté onion and fresh garlic in oil until onion softens, 2 minutes. Stir in marmalade and lime juice and simmer until glaze thickens; remove from heat and stir in chives. Serve glaze over pork.
