Makes 4 servings 4 Idaho or russet potatoes, (8-11ounces each) 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil Combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, hoisin sauce, sherry, ginger, green onion, sesame oil, garlic and 5-spice powder in a resealable freezerweight bag and stir. Trim any excess fat and silver skin from the pork tenderloin. Place the pork tenderloin in the marinade for 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator. Place the rack in position A and preheat toaster oven to 450°F on bake setting. Line the drip tray with foil; then place the broiling pan in the drip tray. 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 temperature 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. Place the rack in position B and preheat the toaster oven to 400ºF on bake setting. Scrub the potatoes thoroughly and dry. Lightly rub each potato with ¼ 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.
