Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
3/4 teaspoon ground coriander
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 pork tenderloins (each about 3/4 pound)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup plain pomegranate juice (such as POM Wonderful)
3/4 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
1 to 2 teaspoons Sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Special Equipment
an instant-read thermometer

Steps:

  • Stir together cumin, coriander, pepper, cinnamon, and salt in a shallow bowl. Pat tenderloins dry and dredge in spice mixture until evenly coated.
  • Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Reduce heat to moderate and cook pork, turning occasionally, until meat is browned on all sides and thermometer inserted diagonally into center of each tenderloin registers 145°F, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer pork with tongs to a cutting board (reserve skillet) and let stand 10 minutes.
  • While pork stands, pour off and discard any fat from skillet, then add pomegranate juice to skillet and boil over moderately high heat until reduced to about 2/3 cup, about 3 minutes (if side of skillet begins to scorch, reduce heat to moderate). Stir together cornstarch and water and whisk into juice, then boil sauce until thickened slightly, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and add Sherry vinegar to taste, then swirl in butter until incorporated. Pour sauce through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl and skim off any fat. Season with salt. Slice pork and serve with sauce.

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

One 6- to 7-pound 8-rib bone-in center cut pork loin, chine bone removed, frenched
2 carrots, halved lengthwise
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 tablespoon plus 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups pomegranate juice
4 sprigs fresh thyme
3 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard

Steps:

  • Remove the pork roast from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the rack on the lower middle section of the oven.
  • Place the carrot halves on the bottom of a small roasting pan and set aside.
  • Trim off any thick areas of fat from the roast. Make shallow slits about 1 inch apart in a crosshatch on the meat of the roast. Mix together the cinnamon, cloves and 1 tablespoon salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the roast and rub to coat. Place the roast on the carrots and add 1/2 cup water to the pan. Roast for 1 hour, adding another 1/2 cup water if the pan gets dry.
  • Meanwhile, combine the pomegranate juice and thyme in a small saucepan. Place over medium heat and reduce by half, about 15 minutes. Stir in the maple syrup and mustard and continue to reduce until slightly thickened, another 3 to 4 minutes. Season with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and remove and discard the thyme.
  • Baste the meat with the pomegranate mixture and roast until the internal temperature reaches 120 degrees F, another 30 minutes. Remove the roast from the oven and turn the oven up to 450 degrees F.
  • Baste the roast again with the pomegranate mixture. Return the roast to the hot oven for an additional 20 minutes, basting with the pomegranate sauce every 5 to 10 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 135 degrees F and the roast is evenly glazed. Remove the roast to a platter to rest for 10 minutes. Add any juices from the pan to the sauce and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir to combine. Slice the roast and serve with the sauce on the side.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pork tenderloin (about 1 pound), excess fat and silver skin removed
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 cup pomegranate juice
1 tablespoon unsulfured molasses
1/4 cup dried currants

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Generously season pork with salt and pepper; cook in skillet until browned on all sides, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven, and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of tenderloin registers 150 degrees, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer pork to a platter (reserve skillet), and tent with aluminum foil.
  • Carefully return skillet to stove. Add pomegranate juice, molasses, and currants to skillet, and bring to a boil over medium-high. Cook until sauce is thickened to a glaze, 5 to 6 minutes. (To test: Coat the back of a spoon with sauce, and run your finger through it to make a line; the glaze is ready when the line doesn't fill in.) To serve, thinly slice pork, and drizzle with glaze.

Tips:

  • To ensure the tenderloin cooks evenly, slice it into medallions of uniform thickness. Pounding the medallions to an even thickness also helps.
  • Sear the tenderloin medallions in a hot skillet until they develop a golden-brown crust. This will help seal in the juices and flavor.
  • Make sure the pomegranate glaze is simmering when you add the tenderloin medallions. This will help prevent the glaze from burning.
  • Baste the tenderloin medallions with the glaze frequently while they are cooking. This will help keep them moist and flavorful.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the tenderloin medallions are cooked to your desired doneness. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, and 165°F (74°C) for well-done.
  • Let the tenderloin medallions rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Pork tenderloin with pomegranate glaze is an easy and delicious dish that is perfect for any occasion. The tenderloin is cooked to perfection and the glaze adds a sweet and tangy flavor that is sure to impress your guests. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
