PERFECT ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLES



Perfect Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Apples image

The trick to flavorful and moist pork tenderloin is to sear the pork before roasting. In our recipe, the pork is seared and then is baked on top a bed of apples and onions. Most often, you will find that pork tenderloins are sold in packages with two tenderloins. One tenderloin should generously serve 2 people and most likely serve 3. One note, "pork tenderloins" and "pork loin" are two different cuts of meat. Pork tenderloins are much thinner and take less time to cook.

Time 50m

Yield Makes 6 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pork tenderloins (about 1 1/2-pounds each)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more as needed
1 1/2 teaspoons salt, plus more as needed
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 apples, cored and sliced (we like Granny Smith, Golden Delicious or Braeburn)
2 onions, sliced
1 cup chicken stock, see our homemade chicken stock recipe
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Trim each tenderloin of any silver skin (this can be tough when cooked). To do this, use a small sharp knife and slide the blade under and outward to remove it.
  • Pat pork dry with paper towels and then rub with one tablespoon of the oil and 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a heavy-bottomed oven-safe skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot and shimmers, add the pork tenderloins and cook, occasionally turning, until evenly browned all over; about 12 minutes. Transfer to a large plate or cutting board. (The pork will not be cooked through).
  • Keep the pan used to sear the pork on the stove over medium heat. Check the pan, if it looks dry, add two to three teaspoons of additional oil. (If there is fat left in the pan from cooking the pork, there is no need to add extra oil).
  • Add the apples and onions then cook, occasionally stirring, until lightly browned around edges, about 5 minutes. Stir in 1 teaspoon of thyme.
  • Use a pastry brush (or use your fingers) to rub the seared pork all over with the mustard, 2 teaspoons of thyme, and the black pepper. Place the seared pork tenderloins on top of the apples and onions, and then slide into the oven.
  • Roast 10 to 15 minutes or until an internal thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers between 145 and 150 degrees F. Transfer the pork to a large plate and cover with aluminum foil. Let rest about 10 minutes.
  • While the pork rests, place the pan with apples and onions back onto the stove and turn heat to medium. Add chicken stock and use a wooden spoon to scrape the pan, lifting any brown bits from the bottom. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half. Add butter and stir until melted.
  • To serve, slice pork into 1-inch slices then serve on a bed of the apples and onions with pan sauce drizzled on top.

PAN-ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLES AND BOURBON



Pan-Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Apples and Bourbon image

Provided by James Briscione

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground fennel seed
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more if needed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more if needed
2 shallots, thinly sliced
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 apples, such as Granny Smith or Golden Delicious, peeled, cored and sliced 1/2-inch thick
4 ounces bourbon
1 cup chicken stock

Steps:

  • Slice the pork tenderloin into 6 to 7 medallions that are 1/2-to 3/4-inch thick, depending on the shape of the tenderloin.
  • Combine the salt, coriander, fennel and pepper in a small bowl and mix well.
  • Spread the sliced pork medallions on a plate or baking sheet and season evenly on both sides with the salt mixture (you may not use it all).
  • Spread the flour on plate. Dip each of the pork medallions in the flour and pat off any of the excess.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter. Cook the pork medallions in batches, adding more oil and butter as needed, browning them well on both sides, about 5 minutes total. Remove to a rack to rest. It's ok if the pork is not cooked all the way through at this stage, it will finish cooking in the sauce.
  • When all the pork has been browned, pour off the fat in the pan into a small bowl. Add the remaining tablespoon butter and melt over medium-high heat. Add the shallots, thyme sprigs and some salt to the pan and cook until the shallots are softened and starting to get a little color, about 1 minute. Then add the apples and saute, stirring occasionally and adding more butter if necessary, until tender, 2 to 3 minutes more.
  • Remove the pan from the heat, add the bourbon and stir to cook off some of the alcohol. Return the pan to the heat and cook, stirring, until reduced by half. Remove the thyme sprigs. Return the pork to the pan along with the chicken stock and season with salt. Simmer until well thickened and reduced, 2 to 3 minutes. Spoon the pork and apples onto plates and drizzle with the sauce.

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (1 1/2 pound) pork tenderloins
2 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided, or more as needed
3 Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored, and sliced into eighths

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste

  • Add remaining tablespoon oil to any drippings in the skillet. Cook apples and onions in the hot oil, stirring occasionally, until onions begin to turn translucent, about 5 minutes, adding a bit more oil if skillet gets dry.
  • Meanwhile, spread Dijon mustard evenly over browned tenderloins using a pastry brush. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons thyme leaves over pork. Sprinkle remaining thyme over apple mixture and add black pepper; stir gently to combine. Nestle tenderloins into the skillet with apple mixture.

  • Meanwhile, pour chicken stock into a saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until reduced by 1/2, 8 to 10 minutes. Add to the skillet containing apple mixture.

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork tenderloin is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check for doneness by cutting into the thickest part of the tenderloin. The meat should be slightly pink in the center.
  • To make sure the spaetzle is cooked through, taste a few pieces before removing them from the boiling water. They should be tender and slightly chewy.
  • If you don't have a spaetzle maker, you can also use a colander with large holes. Simply press the dough through the holes into the boiling water.
  • To make the apple-cilantro salsa, use a sharp knife to dice the apples and cilantro. You can also add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
