Steps:
- PREPARATION: Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper; coat with the flour. Heat oil in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium-high heat. Brown the pork tenderloins for about 5 minutes, turning to brown all sides. Combine the remaining ingredients and pour over the pork. Turn the tenderloins over to coat all sides and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove the cover and continue cooking, turning frequently, for 10 minutes, or until the pork is thoroughly cooked. Slice pork and serve with the sauce. Serves 4 to 6.
Tips:
- Choose a pork loin roast that is at least 2 pounds. This will ensure that you have enough meat to feed your family or guests.
- Score the pork loin roast before cooking. This will help the glaze penetrate the meat and create a more flavorful dish.
- Use a flavorful glaze. The glaze is what will give your pork loin its delicious flavor. Be sure to use a glaze that you and your family will enjoy.
- Cook the pork loin roast to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. This will ensure that the meat is cooked through but still juicy.
- Let the pork loin roast rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
