ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH FIG CHUTNEY



Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Fig Chutney image

Roasting pork tenderloin in the same pan as carrots and onion allows the drippings to infuse the underlying vegetables with flavor. It also means one less pan to clean.

Number Of Ingredients 18

5 ounces dried Black Mission figs, quartered (3/4 cup)
5 ounces dried Calimyrna figs, quartered (3/4 cup)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups ruby or tawny port
1/2 cup water
2 strips lemon zest
2 dried bay leaves
1 cinnamon stick
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
2 pork tenderloins (1 1/2 pounds total)
4 garlic cloves, lightly crushed
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 medium onion, sliced 3/4 inch thick
1 bunch small carrots (about 3/4 pound), stems trimmed to 1/2 inch, halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Make the chutney: Combine figs, butter, port, water, lemon zest, bay leaves, cinnamon, sugar, salt, and pepper in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, until liquid is the consistency of a loose jam, about 40 minutes. Discard bay leaves and cinnamon stick, or reserve for garnish. (Chutney can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to a week; bring to room temperature, or reheat in a pan over low heat, adding water as needed.)
  • Roast the pork: Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Rub pork with garlic and oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Arrange onion on a rimmed baking sheet, and place pork on top. Scatter carrots and garlic around meat. Drizzle lightly with oil.
  • Roast, stirring vegetables halfway through, until a meat thermometer inserted into thickest part of pork registers 145 degrees for medium, 20 to 25 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes. Slice pork, and serve warm or at room temperature with roasted vegetables and chutney. Unsliced pork and vegetables can be refrigerated in an airtight container overnight; slice, and serve chilled.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 cups port
1 1/4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
8 dried black Mission figs, coarsely chopped
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 cinnamon sticks
1 tablespoon honey
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 tablespoon salt, plus additional for seasoning
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, plus additional for seasoning
1 cup canned low-salt chicken broth
1 (4 to 4 1/2-pound) boneless pork loin

Steps:

  • For the sauce: In a heavy medium saucepan, combine the first 6 ingredients. Boil over medium-high heat until reduced by half, about 30 minutes. Discard the herb sprigs and cinnamon sticks (some of the rosemary leaves will remain in the port mixture). Transfer the port mixture to a blender and puree until smooth. Blend in the butter. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper. (The sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over medium heat before using.)
  • For the pork: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Stir the oil, rosemary, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper in a small bowl to blend. Place the pork loin in a heavy roasting pan. Spread the oil mixture over the pork to coat completely. Roast until an instant read meat thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers 145 degrees F, turning the pork every 15 minutes to ensure even browning, about 45 minutes total.
  • Transfer the pork to a cutting board and tent with foil to keep warm. Let the pork rest 15 minutes. Meanwhile, stir the chicken broth into the roasting pan. Place the pan over medium heat, and scrape the bottom of the pan to remove any browned bits. Bring the pan juices to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Using a large sharp knife, cut the pork crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange the pork slices on plates. Spoon the jus over. Drizzle the warm fig sauce around and serve immediately.

HERBED PORK TENDERLOINS

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pork tenderloins (2 1/2 to 3 pounds total)
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary leaves
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Good olive oil
10 to 12 slices prosciutto

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Place the tenderloins on a sheet pan and pat them dry with paper towels. Combine the rosemary, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the tenderloins all over with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sprinkle all sides with the herb mixture. If there is a thinner "tail," fold it underneath so the tenderloin is an even thickness throughout. Wrap the tenderloins completely with a single layer of prosciutto. (I place the prosciutto sideways with the ends wrapping under the tenderloins.) Tie in several places with kitchen string to hold the prosciutto and the "tail" in place.
  • Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the middle of the end of the tenderloin reads 140 degrees F for medium rare and 145 degrees F for medium. Cover the tenderloins tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest at room temperature for 15 minutes. Slice diagonally in thick slices and serve warm with apple chutney.

Tips:

  • Select a quality pork tenderloin: Choose a tenderloin that is evenly colored and free from blemishes. The meat should be firm to the touch and have a slight pink hue.
  • Properly season the pork: Use a flavorful blend of herbs and spices to enhance the taste of the tenderloin. Common seasonings include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and thyme.
  • Sear the pork before roasting: Searing the pork helps to create a flavorful crust and lock in the juices. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the tenderloin on all sides until golden brown.
  • Use a meat thermometer: To ensure that the pork is cooked to perfection, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the tenderloin. The internal temperature should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, and 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Make a delicious fig chutney: Fig chutney is a sweet and savory condiment that complements the pork tenderloin perfectly. Combine dried figs, brown sugar, vinegar, ginger, and spices in a saucepan and simmer until thickened.
