Place the rack in position A and preheat toaster oven to 450°F. Line the
baking pan with foil; then place the roasting rack in the pan.
Remove tenderloin from marinade, allowing excess to drain off. Place
excess marinade in a small saucepan with the chicken stock. Turn the
narrow end of the tenderloin under and attach with a toothpick or skewer
so that the tenderloin is an even thickness.
Roast the tenderloin for 15 to 18 minutes, turning after 9 minutes. While the
pork is roasting, heat the reserved marinade until it bubbles for 5 minutes;
lower heat and cook until reduced by half and thickened – this can be
served as a sauce for the pork. When pork has reached an internal temper-
ature of 150°F when tested with an instant-read thermometer, remove it
from oven. Cover loosely and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.
Slice the tenderloin crosswise into thin slices and serve with sauce.
*Can be found in most well-stocked grocery stores or in any Asian grocery
store.

Baked Potatoes
Why turn on the big oven just to bake potatoes
when the toaster oven does such a good job?
Makes 4 servings
4
Idaho or russet potatoes, (8-11ounces each)
1
teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
Place the rack in position B and preheat the toaster oven to 400ºF. Scrub
the potatoes thoroughly and dry. Lightly rub each potato with
1
⁄
4
teaspoon
of the olive oil. Use a fork to prick potatoes, about 6 to 8 times. Place
directly on the rack and bake until soft and easily pierced with a knife,
about 55 to 60 minutes. Remove from the oven.
To serve, pinch open the top, fluff the interior with a fork and serve topped
with butter, extra virgin olive oil, margarine, or sour cream, as desired. Add
kosher or sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
Variation:
Substitute sweet potatoes or yams for baking potatoes.
