APRICOT-GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN



Apricot-Glazed Pork Tenderloin image

We know them as sweet spreads for toast. But jams and jellies, like this apricot spread, can do so much more.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 pork tenderloins (about 12 ounces each), trimmed of excess fat
1 tablespoon olive oil
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 jar (10 to 12 ounces) apricot jam, (about 1 cup)
1/4 cup spicy brown mustard

Steps:

  • Heat broiler; set rack 4 inches from heat. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Rub pork with oil; season with salt and pepper. Broil 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, whisk together jam and mustard. Cook over medium heat until jam melts, 3 to 4 minutes; remove from heat. Transfer half to a small bowl for brushing. Cover pan to keep remaining sauce warm.
  • Remove pork from broiler; brush with reserved sauce. Continue broiling until pork is blackened in spots and registers 150 degrees on an instant-read thermometer, 5 to 10 minutes more.
  • Cover pork loosely with foil; let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Serve drizzled with warm sauce.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use a high-quality Dijon mustard and apricot preserves.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, cook the pork tenderloin until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
  • Let the pork tenderloin rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • The Dijon apricot mop sauce can also be used to glaze other meats, such as chicken or salmon.
  • Serve the pork tenderloin with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

This rubbed pork tenderloin with Dijon apricot mop sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The tenderloin is juicy and flavorful, and the sauce is tangy and sweet. This dish is sure to impress your guests, and it's a great way to enjoy a special occasion meal.
