Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Good olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 cups sliced yellow onions (2 onions)
2 cups sliced fennel (1 large bulb)
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons minced garlic (2 large cloves)
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme leaves
1 tablespoon Pernod or white wine
3 cups fresh bread crumbs
1 (3 1/2-pound) loin of pork, butterflied

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • For the stuffing, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan. Add the onions and fennel with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cook over low to medium-low heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions and fennel are tender and lightly browned. Add the garlic and thyme and cook for 1 more minute. Add the Pernod and cook for another minute, deglazing the pan. Cool slightly.
  • Add the bread crumbs and 1 teaspoon of salt to the stuffing mixture. Lay the pork on a board fat side down, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread the stuffing evenly on the pork and roll up lengthwise, ending with the fat on the top of the roll. Tie with kitchen string, rub with olive oil, and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper.
  • Place the rolled pork loin on a baking rack on a sheet pan and roast for 30 minutes. Lower the heat to 350 degrees F and roast for another 20 to 30 minutes, until the interior of the pork is 137 degrees F. (If the thermometer hits stuffing rather than pork, it will register a higher temperature, so test the meat in several places.) Remove from the oven and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Allow to rest for 15 minutes. Remove the strings, slice thickly, and serve.

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lemon, zest grated
3/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (4 to 6 lemons)
Good olive oil
2 tablespoons minced garlic (6 cloves)
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary leaves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Kosher salt
3 pork tenderloins (about 1 pound each)
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, 1/2 cup olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, mustard, and 2 teaspoons salt in a sturdy 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add the pork tenderloins and turn to coat with the marinade. Squeeze out the air and seal the bag. Marinate the pork in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours but preferably overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Remove the tenderloins from the marinade and discard the marinade but leave the herbs that cling to the meat. Sprinkle the tenderloins generously with salt and pepper. Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large oven-proof saute pan over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloins on all sides until golden brown. Place the saute pan in the oven and roast the tenderloins for 10 to 15 minutes or until the meat registers 137 degrees F at the thickest part. Transfer the tenderloins to a platter and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Allow to rest for 10 minutes. Carve in 1/2-inch-thick diagonal slices. The thickest part of the tenderloin will be quite pink (it's just fine!) and the thinnest part will be well done. Season with salt and pepper and serve warm, or at room temperature with the juices that collect in the platter.

ROASTED PORK, FENNEL, AND ONIONS



Roasted Pork, Fennel, and Onions image

Great for big feasts! Olive oil can be substituted for butter, if you'd rather eat olive oil than butter.

Provided by Christine L.

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Pork

Time 1h50m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons butter
1 cup fresh sage
1 ½ tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons freshly ground cumin seed
1 (3 pound) boneless pork loin roast - trimmed, rolled, and tied
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 bulbs fennel, trimmed, tops reserved
1 ½ cups orange juice
4 red onions with peel, halved
½ cup chicken stock
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 cup sage. Cook and stir until leaves are slightly crisp, about 1 minute. Remove leaves with a slotted spoon, and drain on paper towels. Cool, wrap in paper towels, and seal in a plastic bag. Set aside. Reserve the butter.
  • Mix the pepper and cumin in a small bowl. Rinse roast and pat dry; rub evenly with the pepper and cumin. Tuck remaining 1/2 cup sage leaves under the strings on the smooth (fattiest) side of the roast. Set the pork, herb side up, on a rack in a roasting pan.
  • Spread olive oil in the bottom of a medium baking dish. Thickly slice fennel and place in the dish. Toss to coat with the olive oil, and drizzle with 3/4 cup orange juice. Place onions in the dish cut side down.
  • Place roast on the center rack in the preheated oven. Place fennel and onions on lower rack. Bake the pork and vegetables 1 hour, or until pork reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) and vegetables are tender. Turn fennel once during bake time. Reserving drippings, transfer meat to a platter and keep warm; let stand at least 10 minutes. Keep the vegetables warm in the baking dish.
  • Place the roasting pan with reserved drippings over high heat on the stove top, and mix in the reserved butter from Step 1, the remaining 3/4 cup orange juice, stock, and vinegar. Bring to a boil, and stir to scrape up any browned bits in the pan. Cook, stirring often, 10 minutes, or until reduced by about 1/2.
  • Arrange onions and fennel around the pork. Garnish with fennel tops, sprinkle with the fried sage leaves, and season with salt to serve.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH FENNEL



Pork Tenderloin with Fennel image

Categories     Herb     Pork     Roast     Low Carb     Low Fat     Fennel     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 cup chopped fresh fennel
2 large garlic cloves, minced
2/3 cup canned unsalted chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds, chopped
8 ounces pork tenderloin

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add fennel and half of garlic and sauté until almost tender, about 5 minutes. Pour in 1/3 cup chicken broth and sprinkle over half of fennel seeds. Cover and simmer until fennel is very tender and liquid is absorbed, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cool.
  • Starting 1/2 inch up on 1 long side, cut through tenderloin to within 1/2 inch of opposite side. Open as for book. Continue cutting through thick portion of tenderloin until meat forms 1;/2-inch-thick rectangle. Spread fennel mixture evenly over pork. Beginning at 2 long end, roll pork up jelly roll style. Tie pork with stirring to secure. (Can be prepared 8 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Place pork in same skillet. Rub pork with remaining garlic clove and 1/4 teaspoon fennel seeds. Season with salt and pepper. Roast in oven until pork is cooked through, about 25 minutes. Remove pork from skillet and keep warm. Pour remaining 1/3 cup chicken broth into skillet. Boil until reduced by half, about 1 minute. Remove string from pork. Cut pork into 1-inch pieces. Divide between plates, cut side up. Spoon sauce over pork and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose a good quality pork tenderloin: Look for a tenderloin that is firm to the touch and has a pinkish color. Avoid tenderloins that are brown or have any signs of bruising.
  • Trim the pork tenderloin: Remove any excess fat or silver skin from the tenderloin. This will help it cook more evenly.
  • Season the pork tenderloin: Season the tenderloin with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices or herbs. You can also marinate the tenderloin in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices for added flavor.
  • Sear the pork tenderloin: Sear the tenderloin in a hot skillet over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the tenderloin and keep it juicy on the inside.
  • Cook the pork tenderloin: Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to cook the tenderloin until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. You can use a meat thermometer to check the temperature.
  • Let the pork tenderloin rest: Remove the tenderloin from the skillet and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.
  • Serve the pork tenderloin: Slice the tenderloin and serve it with your favorite sides. Some popular sides include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Pork tenderloin is a versatile and delicious cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. The sautéed onion and fennel cream sauce is a flavorful and elegant accompaniment to the tenderloin. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal.
