STRAWBERRY PORK TENDERLOIN



Strawberry Pork Tenderloin image

This was originally a grilled or sauteed pork chop recipe from the Taste of Home Test Kitchen that I have tweaked. I used tenderloin instead because I am not a bone-in person, and then decided on oven-roasting to keep it tender and juicy. Do not skip the searing step. It really locks in the juices. The flavor on these is absolutely amazing. So tender, and the flavors of the sauce combine beautifully.

Categories     Pork

Time 2h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lbs pork tenderloin
2 teaspoons dried rosemary, crushed, to taste
1 teaspoon pepper (to taste)
1 teaspoon kosher salt (to taste)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons margarine or 3 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups raspberry vinaigrette dressing
4 tablespoons chopped green onions
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 cups sliced fresh strawberries, 1/4 inch slices

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a small bowl, combine the vinaigrette, onion, brown sugar, paprika and Worcestershire sauce; set aside.
  • Rinse the tenderloin, and prick on all sides with a fork. Season liberally on all sides with salt, pepper, and crushed rosemary, rubbing all spices into the meat very well.
  • Set a roasting pan over two burners on your stove, where you will get a nice even heat, add olive-oil and margarine, and bring to medium-high temperature.
  • Next, carefully place your tenderloin into the roasting pan. The reason for doing this is to sear the outside of the tenderloin so that when you roast it in the oven it stays nice and moist. So you'll want to sear it on all "sides" for about a minute each (rotating it with a pair of tongs), including the two ends.
  • Turn heat down to medium and add the vinaigrette mixture, turning meat to coat thoroughly in sauce. Once meat is coated, and sauce has darkened in color (but not burnt), remove from heat. Spoon about 1/2 of the pan juices/sauce into a small saucepan and reserve.
  • Put the roasting pan with the tenderloin and 1/2 of the sauce into the oven. Cook about an hour and a half, basting in sauce every 20 minutes or so. I also placed a pan of water on the bottom rack of the oven to give added moisture.
  • Once the tenderloin is in the oven, add strawberries to reserved sauce and stir to coat the berries. After about an hour and fifteen minutes you can start checking on the tenderloin. Poking it with your finger should feel somewhat springy, and a sharp knife inserted to the middle should run clear juices. An hour and a half should give you a perfect, moist roast.
  • Pull the tenderloin out of the oven and allow it to rest for about five minutes. Meanwhile, put the saucepan with the berries on the stove on low heat, and warm through. Once the meat has rested, transfer to a serving platter, slice, and pour warm sauce with berries over to serve.

MUSTARD-GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN



Mustard-Glazed Pork Tenderloin image

This pork tenderloin with a savory-sweet mustard glaze makes an elegant weeknight dinner or centerpiece roast.

Provided by Jennifer Segal

Categories     Dinner

Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pork tenderloins (1¾ to 2 lbs total)
½ cup (packed) light brown sugar
½ cup grainy Dijon mustard (such as Maille Rich Country Dijon Mustard Blend or Grey Poupon Country Dijon)
½ cup dry sherry
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
Salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, for cooking
Freshly ground black pepper
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 5 pieces

Steps:

  • Pat the tenderloins dry with paper towels.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, mustard, sherry, and rosemary.
  • Place the tenderloins in a baking dish or bowl. Season all over with 1¼ teaspoons salt and pour about one-third of the marinade over top. Turn the tenderloins a few times to coat evenly with the marinade. Marinate for at least 1 hour or as long as overnight (the longer, the better). Cover the remaining marinade and refrigerate until ready to use (it will form the base of the sauce).
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and set an oven rack in the middle position.
  • Heat the oil in a large cast iron or oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat (see note below if you don't have one of these pans). Add both tenderloins and sear on all sides until nicely browned, 6 to 8 minutes (don't move the tenderloins around between turns; they will brown better if left alone). Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until the pork registers about 140°F on an instant-read thermometer, 12 to 15 minutes. (To check for doneness without a thermometer, make a slit in the thickest part of the loin; the meat should be mostly white with a slight hint of pale pink, and the juices should run mostly clear.)
  • Remove the skillet from the oven and immediately place an oven mitt or dishtowel over the handle to remind yourself that it is hot (it is easy to forget and burn yourself!). Transfer the tenderloins to a cutting board. Tent with foil and let rest for about 10 minutes, then cut into ¼- to ½-inch slices.
  • Meanwhile, pour the remaining marinade into a small skillet and bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. Remove the pan from the heat and, stirring constantly, incorporate the butter one piece at a time. Add ⅛ teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Arrange the sliced tenderloin on a platter and drizzle with a bit of the sauce; pass the remaining sauce at the table.
  • Note: If you don't have an oven-proof skillet, transfer the pork to a foil-lined sheet pan after searing. (The foil is just for easy cleanup.) You may need to add a few minutes to the baking time.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH LIGHTLY SEARED STRAWBERRIES



Pork Tenderloin With Lightly Seared Strawberries image

(Solomillo de Cerdo con Fresas) Playing off the tart-sweet-aromatic flavors of sherry vinegar and seared strawberries, this modern Spanish dish is outstanding - as sophisticated and striking as it is easy to make. The amount of sugar you use will depends on how sweet you'd like the sauce and the tartness of your sherry vinegar. The strawberries likewise need some acidity; choose berries that are fragrant and seasonal but just a touch underripe. They should be tangy-sweet and seared very briefly. The pork is best when slightly pink and moist; a meat thermometer is indispensable here. Adapted from "The New Spanish Table" cookbook.

Categories     Strawberry

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pork tenderloin (about 1 pound each)
coarse salt & freshly ground black pepper (kosher or sea)
2 tablespoons crumbled dried rosemary
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for brushing the griddle
10 -12 large strawberries, hulled and sliced
1/3 cup chicken stock (or water)
1/2 cup sherry wine vinegar (preferably aged)
2 -4 teaspoons sugar
flaky sea salt, for garnish (such as Maldon)
minced fresh chives, for garnish

Steps:

  • Rub the pork generously with salt, pepper, and rosemary. Heat the olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook until richly browned on all sides, about 6 minutes total. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the pork, turning several times, until it is tender and an instant-read thermometer registers 155º, about 15 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let it rest, covered with foil, while you prepare the strawberries and sauce. The internal temperature will rise as the meat stands. Set the skillet aside, you'll use it to make the sauce.
  • Rub an unridged rimmed griddle pan or a large, heavy skillet with an oiled paper towel and heat until almost smoking. Add the strawberries and sear for about 45 seconds, turning once. They should be cooked until slightly softened but should not release too much juice.
  • Add the chicken stock to the skillet in which the pork cooked and place it over medium-high heat, scraping the bottom to dislodge the brown bits. Cook until the stock is almost syrupy, about 3 minutes. Add the vinegar and 2 teaspoons of the sugar and continue cooking until the sauce is almost thick enough to coat a spoon, 3-5 minutes longer. After 1 1/2 minutes, taste the sauce and add more sugar to taste if it seems too tart.
  • Cut the pork into slices and arrange them decoratively on dinner plates. Spoon some seared strawberries beside the meat and drizzle the sauce on and around the meat and strawberries. Sprinkle flaky salt over the pork and garnish it with chives. Serve at once.
