1 pound (16 ounces) pork tenderloin

1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 ounces (1/2 cup) ground chorizo sausage
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup ginger lime marmalade or your favorite marmalade

2. Season the tenderloin on both sides with salt and pepper. Place the chorizo down the center of the tenderloin, patting it down, and leaving about 2 inches on all sides of the chorizo. Roll up the tenderloin. Truss the tenderloin with kitchen string.
3. Heat a large sauté pan to high heat. Pour in the oil. Place the trussed tenderloin in the hot oil. Sear the tenderloin on all sides evenly, until the bottom has a browned crust.
4. Slide the skillet into the hot oven. Bake for 12-16 minutes or until an internal temperature of 160°F has been achieved.
5. Remove trussing; slice the tenderloin on a bias. Place the pieces on a platter. Drizzle the tenderloin with marmalade. Serve immediately.
