Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Fresh Plum Sauce image

When shopping for this recipe be sure to choose plums (or any other stone fruit) that are fairly firm so they keep their shape after roasting. You know that selfish jerk that has to feel-up every piece of fruit before deciding on one? This time, be that jerk.

Time 1h

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pork tenderloin
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 red onion, sliced
2 shallots, sliced
3 fresh thyme sprigs, or more to taste
2 firm plums, pitted and each cut into 4 wedges
1 cup water
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon cold butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Generously season pork tenderloin with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat oil in a large, oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Cook tenderloin until browned on all sides, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer tenderloin to a plate.
  • Saute onion with a pinch of salt in the same skillet until just softening, 3 to 5 minutes. Add shallots, reduce heat to medium, and cook and stir until shallots and onion are golden brown and caramelized, about 10 minutes.
  • Stir thyme into onion mixture; place tenderloin over onion mixture, and set plum quarters, skin-side down, around pork tenderloin. Transfer skillet to preheated oven.
  • Cook until pork is slightly pink in the center, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Transfer pork and plums to a plate.
  • Place skillet over medium-high heat and pour water and balsamic vinegar into onion mixture. Bring mixture to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook and stir until liquid is reduced by half, 5 to 10 minutes; remove from heat. Whisk butter into mixture until melted and sauce is shiny. Pour sauce over pork and plums.

PORK CHOPS WITH SALTED PLUMS



Pork Chops With Salted Plums image

This weeknight affair pairs savory pork with a sweet-and-sour mixture of sliced plums and red onions. When a recipe has so few ingredients, it's important that they be of the highest quality possible. The pork chops here will deliver most of the fat, so make sure they're well marbled (bone-in loin or rib chops both work). As for the plums, this is one of the rare occasions in which underripe is preferred to perfectly ripe, so they maintain texture after they get briefly tossed in the skillet, and also deliver plenty of acidity for the pan sauce.

Provided by Alison Roman

Categories     dinner, quick, weekday, meat, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 bone-in pork chops (1 1/4- to 1 1/2-inch thick, about 1 1/2 pounds total)
Kosher salt and ground pepper
1 pound medium plums, pitted and sliced
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup unseasoned rice wine vinegar or fresh lime juice, plus more as needed
1/2 teaspoon fish sauce (optional)
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 cup fresh mint leaves
Olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Season pork with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Combine the plums and onion in a medium bowl along with vinegar and fish sauce, if using. Season with salt and pepper and try a plum; they should be relatively tangy and salty. Add more vinegar or salt, if needed, and set aside.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork chops and cook, without moving, until well browned on one side, 4 to 6 minutes. Flip chops and cook until well browned on the other side, another 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer pork chops to a cutting board to rest. Add plum and onion mixture to the skillet and remove from heat. Give everything a toss, just to deglaze the skillet and scrape up any of those browned bits, slightly wilting the onion and letting some of those plum juices run free.
  • Slice pork chops to your desired thickness and transfer to a large serving platter. Scatter with plum mixture, top with mint and give everything a drizzle of olive oil before serving.

Provided by Anonymous

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Pork     Pork Tenderloin Recipes

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pork tenderloin
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ½ plums, pitted and chopped
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons blueberry juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Season the pork tenderloin with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet over high heat until the oil shimmers; gently lay the tenderloin into the hot oil. After about 1 minute, gently loosen the meat from the bottom of the skillet, if necessary. Cook until the pork is seared a golden brown color, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the pork to the lined baking sheet.
  • Roast the seared tenderloin in the preheated oven until a thermometer inserted into the center of the pork reads at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 15 minutes. Remove the pork from the oven and allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing into medallions.
  • Cook the plums, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, honey, and blueberry juice in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring often, until the plums are soft, about 10 minutes. Transfer the sauce to a blender and blend until smooth. Return the sauce to the saucepan and simmer until reduced and thickened to the consistency of apple butter, about 5 more minutes. Spoon plum sauce over the sliced pork to serve.

Categories     Pork

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb black plums (4-6 plums) or 1 lb red plum, pitted and cut into sixths (4-6 plums)
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, plus more for garnish
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
6 tablespoons turbinado sugar or 6 tablespoons white sugar, divided
12 black peppercorns, crushed
1 vanilla beans, split or 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1 lb pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat
1/2 teaspoon peppercorn
1/8 teaspoon marjoram
1/8 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 pinch garlic powder

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Trim the pork tenderloin of any excess fat. Use a mortar and pestle to crush the peppercorns, marjoram, rosemary and garlic powder together. Sprinkle the spices around the meat and wrap in plastic wrap. Set aside for up to 15 minutes. (If you are going to let this rest longer, place in fridge and remove 15 minutes before cooking.).
  • To roast plums, place the fruit skin side to the bottom of the pan and leaves from 2 rosemary sprigs in an 8-inch-square baking dish.
  • Whisk water, balsamic vinegar, 4 tablespoons sugar and peppercorns in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean; add the seeds and bean to the vinegar mixture. Pour the mixture over the plums. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons (turbinado or white) sugar.
  • Roast the plums, uncovered, until tender and beginning to break down, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Once the meat has sat for 15 minutes, heat olive oil in a cast iron skillet (or another oven proof pan). Cook the meat for 5-6 minutes turning so that all sides of the tenderloin are browned. Place skillet in the oven and cook until the meat reaches 155 degrees, about 12-15 minutes. Once done, remove the pork from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes. (In that time the meat will reach the desired 160 degrees.).
  • Once the plums are done roasting, discard the rosemary and the vanilla bean. Strain the roasting liquid into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook until reduced to 1/2 cup, 6 to 8 minutes. Whilst reducing the sauce tent the plums with foil over the roasting pan. (I would suggest not starting your reduction until the meat is cooked and resting.).
  • After the meat has rested, carve on the diagonal into slices about 1/4 to 3/8 inch thick.
  • To serve place a quarter of plums onto the plate. Place the pork on top and drizzle with the balsamic reduction. Garnish with additional rosemary if desired.

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 2h25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

about 1.6kg/3lb 8oz pork shoulder
5 tbsp rice wine
5 tbsp light soy sauce for flavour, 1 tbsp dark for colour
generous thumb-size piece fresh root ginger
5 garlic cloves
1 red chilli , deseeded and finely chopped

2 star anise
1 ½ tsp five-spice powder
1 cinnamon stick
2 tbsp sugar , any type
1 tbsp tomato purée
500ml chicken stock
6 ripe plums , halved and stoned

Steps:

  • Cut the pork into big pieces about the length of your thumb and twice as wide. Put into a bowl or food bag, and add the wine, soy sauces, half the ginger, half the garlic and half the chilli. Marinate for at least 1 hr or up to 24 hrs.
  • Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3, then heat the oil in a large casserole. Tip in half the spring onions, remaining ginger and garlic, the star anise, five-spice powder and cinnamon. Fry gently until fragrant and soft.

Tips:

  • To achieve the best flavor, choose ripe and sweet plums. Look for plums that are slightly soft to the touch, with no bruises or blemishes.
  • If you don't have Shaoxing wine, you can substitute dry sherry or white wine.
  • If you want a thicker sauce, add a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water) to the pan after the plums have softened.
  • Serve the pork and plums over rice or noodles. You can also garnish the dish with chopped green onions or cilantro.
  • Pork tenderloin is typically a lean cut of meat containing little fat. Cooking it for too long can make it tough, so it should be cooked quickly over high heat.
