Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

One 1 1/2 pound pork tenderloin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
1/4 cup fresh tarragon leaves
3 shallots, sliced
2 garlic cloves
Crusty bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Sprinkle the pork generously all over with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat until very hot and then add the tenderloin. Cook the pork, flipping occasionally, until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes total. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast the pork until just cooked through, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork registers 150 degrees F, about 15 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes.
  • While the pork roasts, put the parsley, cilantro, vinegar, chives, tarragon, shallots and garlic in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until the herbs are minced. Slowly drizzle in the remaining 2/3 cup oil with the motor running until you have a thick sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Slice the pork tenderloin and spoon the salsa verde over top. Serve with crusty bread for soaking up all the juices.

Time 8h50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat
2 cups olive oil
¾ cup soy sauce
2 medium limes, juiced
2 tablespoons minced onion
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
2 teaspoons white sugar
2 teaspoons flavor enhancer (such as Accent®)
1 (10 ounce) jar cherry preserves
½ cup red wine
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup slivered almonds

Steps:

  • Place pork in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Pour in olive oil, soy sauce, lime juice, minced onion, ginger, sugar, and flavor enhancer for marinade. Toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours, or overnight.

  • Remove pork from the refrigerator and place in a shallow baking pan. Cover with some of the marinade and discard the rest.
