Ingredients

 Orange marmalade1/2 Cup (16 tbs)
 Lime juice2 Tablespoon
 Shallot1 Teaspoon, finely chopped
 Chili powder1 1/2 Teaspoon
 Sugar1 Teaspoon
 Salt3/4 Teaspoon
 Five spice powder1/4 Teaspoon
 1 (12-ounce) pork tenderloin, trimmed of all visible fat
 Sugar snap peas3/4 pound, trimmed
 Safflower oil1 1/2 Teaspoon
 Rice vinegar1 1/2 Teaspoon
 Grated ginger1/4 Teaspoon, peeled
 Ground pepper1 To taste

Directions

1. Spray the grill rack with nonstick spray; prepare the grill for medium-hot fire.
2. Bring the marmalade, lime juice, and shallot to a boil in a small saucepan; boil 2 minutes. Allow to cool, then transfer half of the glaze to a small bowl.
3. Blend the chili powder, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and the five-spice powder in a small bowl. Rub the spice all over the pork. Grill the pork 5 inches from heat, turning and brushing with half of the glaze, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of meat registers 160°F, 20-25 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, cook the sugar snap peas in a saucepan of boiling water until crisp-tender, 2-3 minutes. Rinse under cold water and drain.Toss the sugar snap peas with the oil, vinegar, ginger, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and the pepper.
5. Gently warm the remaining glaze over low heat. Slice the tenderloin, drizzle with the glaze, and serve with the sugar snap peas.
