Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 slices bacon, thinly sliced
1 small red onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, smashed
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Pinch red pepper flakes
8 cups kale, roughly chopped
1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth, plus 1/4 cup
1 large tomato, diced
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons Cajun spice blend
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 pork tenderloins (about 14 ounces each), each halved crosswise
1/2 cup chicken stock
Store-bought dinner rolls or biscuits

Steps:

  • For the greens: Cook the bacon over medium heat in a large skillet until browned, about 6 minutes. Add the onion, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper flakes and tomato, and cook until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the kale and 1 1/2 cups broth, cover, cook until wilted, about 8 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup broth and vinegar, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • For the pork: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Combine the Cajun spice, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, and salt to make paste. Rub the pork with spice paste. Heat a skillet over medium-high. Add the remaining olive oil and sear the pork, turning until all sides are golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes total. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the meat registers 150 degrees F, about 10 to 12 minutes. Set aside for 5 minutes to rest on a cutting board. Deglaze the pan with 1/2 cup chicken broth. Reduce a little and swirl in 2 tablespoons butter. Thinly slice the pork, divide among 4 plates. Drizzle with pan sauce and serve with the greens and dinner rolls or biscuits.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 small pork tenderloins (about 12 ounces each)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 bunch collard greens (about 1 pound), stems removed, leaves thinly sliced
1 15-ounce can black-eyed peas, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup jarred Peppadew peppers, drained and roughly chopped
2 scallions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup crumbled cornbread

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F and line a baking sheet with foil. Combine the chili powder, thyme, cayenne and 3/4 teaspoon each salt and black pepper in a small bowl. Rub the pork with 1 tablespoon olive oil and the spice mixture.

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 0

Steps:

  • Whisk 1 minced shallot, 1 tablespoon each whole-grain mustard and lemon juice, and salt and pepper. Whisk in 1/3 cup olive oil. Toss with 1 torn romaine heart, 1 torn head Bibb lettuce and 1/2 bunch chopped chives.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling later on.
  • Choose the Right Pork Tenderloin: Look for a pork tenderloin that is firm to the touch and has a light pink color. Avoid any tenderloins that are slimy or have a dark color, as these may be signs of spoilage.
  • Season the Pork Tenderloin Generously: Don't be afraid to season the pork tenderloin liberally. This will help develop flavor and prevent it from becoming bland. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Sear the Pork Tenderloin Properly: Searing the pork tenderloin is an important step that helps to lock in the juices and create a delicious crust. Make sure you sear the tenderloin over high heat until it is browned on all sides.
  • Cook the Pork Tenderloin to the Correct Temperature: The internal temperature of the pork tenderloin should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare or 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork tenderloin is cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the Pork Tenderloin Rest: Once the pork tenderloin is cooked, let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat and make it more tender.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Pork Tenderloin with Turmeric Squash and Collard Greens Salad is a delicious and nutritious meal that is perfect for any occasion. The pork tenderloin is tender and flavorful, while the turmeric squash and collard greens salad is a refreshing and healthy side dish. This recipe is sure to please everyone at your table.
