Steps:
- Position racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 475 degrees F.
- Toss apples, sliced fennel and onion with 1 tablespoon oil in a large bowl. Spread out on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast on the lower oven rack, stirring twice, until tender and golden, 30 to 35 minutes.
- About 10 minutes after the apple mixture goes into the oven, sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork on one side, about 2 minutes. Turn the pork over and transfer the pan to the top oven rack. Roast until just barely pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer registers 145 degrees F, 12 to 14 minutes.
- Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Immediately stir vinegar into the pan (be careful, the handle will be hot), scraping up any browned bits, then add to the apple mixture. Thinly slice the pork; serve with the apple mixture and sprinkle with fennel fronds.

APPLE & LEEK STUFFED PORK TENDERLOIN FROM EATING WELL
Stuff pork tenderloin with apple and leek to take it from ordinary to elegant. Our easy method of tying the roast together keeps the filling inside while you brown and roast it. We use applejack, brandy made from apple cider, for depth of flavor in the pan sauce, but you can use 1/2 cup cider if you prefer.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add leek and cook, stirring, until beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Add apple, chopped thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apple is beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a bowl to cool. Rinse out the pan.
- To butterfly the tenderloin, lay it on a large cutting board. Holding the knife blade flat and parallel to the board, make a lengthwise cut through the center of the meat, stopping short of the opposite edge so that the tenderloin remains in one piece. Open as you would a book. Cover with plastic wrap. With a meat mallet, rolling pin or heavy pan, pound the pork to an even 1/4-inch thickness.
- Spread the apple mixture in the center of the pork, leaving a 1-inch border all around. Starting at a long side, roll up the pork to enclose the filling. To keep the stuffing from falling out during roasting, fold in about 1 inch of the two short ends. Tie kitchen string firmly lengthwise around the roast to secure the two ends. Then tie it crosswise with string at 2-inch intervals. Lightly brush the roast with 1 teaspoon oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and brown the roast on all sides, about 4 minutes total. Transfer the roast to a rimmed baking sheet (set the pan aside). Place in the oven and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F, about 15 minutes. Let rest on a clean cutting board for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. Crush garlic with the flat side of a knife. Return the pan to medium-high heat. Add applejack (or apple brandy), thyme sprig and the garlic; bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Whisk cider and cornstarch and add to the pan. Return to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened and reduced by just over half (to about 3/4 cup), 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat; discard the garlic and thyme. Whisk in mustard and any juice from the baking sheet. Slice the pork and serve with the sauce.
BACON-WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLE STUFFING
This small roast gets the star treatment with an apple and onion stuffing, and it's rolled up in bacon, for even more flavor. Perfect for a weeknight dinner because it bakes in about 20 minutes with a short resting time. We liked this with steamed broccoli and home fries.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Stir together mustard and maple syrup in a small bowl.
- Pat pork tenderloin dry. Without cutting all the way through, slice the tenderloin lengthwise and open like a book. Spread mustard mixture evenly over the inside and outside of the tenderloin, then season with salt and pepper.
- Place apple slices on one side of the tenderloin. Spread onions on top of the apples and sprinkle with thyme. Close the tenderloin, tucking apples and onions inside.
- Line up bacon slices in a rectangle shape on a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil, with each piece overlapping slightly. Place the stuffed tenderloin across the top ends of the bacon. Use the foil to lift the tenderloin and start to roll it like a jellyroll until it's completely wrapped with bacon.
- Secure both ends of the tenderloin and each bacon slice with a wooden toothpick. Use the foil to lift the tenderloin into a 9x13-inch baking pan. Spread out the foil to protect the pan from drippings.
- Cook in the preheated oven until slightly pink in the center, about 20 minutes, turning halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
- Remove from the oven and let rest until internal temperature has risen to 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), 5 to 10 minutes.
