ROAST PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLE-ONION MARMALADE



Roast Pork Tenderloin With Apple-Onion Marmalade image

When pork was introduced in France by the Gauls during the rule of the Roman Empire, it was considered a meat fit primarily for the common people. These days, advanced farming techniques produce meat that is far more tender and lean than the original. The best part of the pork - the tenderloin - is now the basis for a myriad of sophisticated dishes - I hope you enjoy this one -

TERIYAKI, DIJON PORK TENDERLOIN W/ MUSHROOMS/ONION/BAKED APPLE



Teriyaki, Dijon Pork Tenderloin W/ Mushrooms/Onion/Baked Apple image

My entry into the 2009 Canadian Living Magazine Cook of the Year Contest. The recipe did not make the cut, but it is tasty and certainly worthy of sharing. You will note the absence of salt and/or pepper. I am thinking there is sufficient sodium and seasonings in the Teriyaki sauce and Dijon Mustard to justify eliminating additional seasoning from the recipe.... Salt/Sodium should never overpower other ingredients. If additional salt is requested, by all means, do provide it, but suggest that they taste first, and salt second. Pork Tenderloin can be purchased from your local supermarket in packages of two tenderloins, weighing approximately one kilo. This is usually sufficient for a dinner serving 4. This recipe was originally developed to serve 8; you will therefore require two packages of pork tenderloin - 2 loins per package..... As they say in Ontario "PUT PORK ON YOUR FORK".

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 fresh pork tenderloin
1/3 cup water
3 -4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 cooking apple
1 medium size cooking onion, sliced
8 medium size fresh mushrooms
2 garlic cloves, peeled, crushed and chopped fine
2 tablespoons rubbed sage
1/3 cup liquid honey
1/3 cup teriyaki sauce
1/4 cup smooth Dijon mustard
15 -20 cherry tomatoes (to garnish)
2 -3 sprigs fresh herbs (to garnish, eg, parsley, sage, rosemary)

Steps:

  • Oven 350°F.
  • Peel, core and rough chop the apple. In a small, covered sauce pan add 1/3 C water and chopped apple. Over medium/low heat, cook into unsweetened apple sauce. If the apple sauce is a bit lumpy, that's OK; it will cook down during the roasting process. Mix well, then set aside for later use.
  • Clean and quarter mushrooms.
  • Add about 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil to a saute pan deep enough to hold all the mushrooms, with stems, and sliced onion. Over medium heat, clarify onion; add mushrooms and garlic; cover the pan, and allow to saute, for about 5 minutes.
  • Add rubbed sage to mushroom/onion mixture and combine well. Remove from heat.
  • In a mixing bowl, place honey, teriyaki sauce, Dijon mustard; add unsweetened apple sauce (which you had set aside).
  • Add mushrooms and onion to honey mixture and mix well.
  • Add additional olive oil to same frying pan and brown pork tenderloin on all sides.
  • Arrange pork tenderloin in oval, roasting pan with a cover. Roasting pan should comfortably accommodate all 4 tenderloins. Pour prepared mushroom/onion mixture over tenderloins in roasting pan. Cover and bake one hour.
  • When done, remove tenderloin from roasting pan to warmed serving platter. Cover with foil and allow to sit for about 10 minutes. Return roasting pan to low heat on stove top, to keep the sauce hot.
  • Carve each tenderloin in half. You will have 8 tenderloin pieces, 6 to 8 oz. each. Arrange on warmed serving platter and spoon mushroom/onion sauce over the meat. Arrange cherry tomatoes around the serving platter; garnish with sprigs of fresh herbs.
  • Serve with rice, orzo, potatoes, and vegetables of your choosing; additional sauce in a gravy boat would not go amiss.

Apple onion pork tenderloin is a delicious meal that is perfect for any occasion, be it a family dinner or a large gathering of friends. It combines the rich flavors of tender pork, caramelized onions, and sweet apples to create an unforgettable dining experience. However, making apple onion pork tenderloin requires time and skill, as even the slightest mistake can ruin the dish. In this guide, we’ll provide you with valuable tips that can help you create the perfect apple onion pork tenderloin recipe. Choose the Right Pork Tenderloin When selecting the pork tenderloin for your recipe, ensure that you pick one that is fresh and of high quality, as this will significantly influence the taste of your dish. For instance, choose a tenderloin that is pink, firm, and smooth to the touch. Also, the meat should not have a strong odor or any signs of discoloration, indicating that it is fresh. Marinate the Pork Tenderloin Marinating the pork tenderloin is essential as it will help to tenderize the meat, infuse it with flavor, and make it juicy. You can use different marinade recipes for your apple onion pork tenderloin. For instance, a simple marinade can comprise soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and sugar. To marinate the pork tenderloin correctly, you should: 1. Combine the marinade ingredients in a mixing bowl and whisk until sugar dissolves. 2. Rub the pork tenderloin evenly with the marinade, ensuring that it coats all sides of the meat. 3. Place the pork tenderloin in a resealable bag, pour in the remaining marinade and ensure that it surrounds the meat. Press the air out of the bag, seal it and refrigerate for at least four hours or overnight. Cook the Pork Tenderloin at the Right Temperature Cooking the pork tenderloin at the correct temperature is crucial, as it ensures that the meat is juicy, tender, and not overcooked. Generally, the internal temperature of the pork tenderloin should reach 145°F or 62.8°C. To cook your apple onion pork tenderloin correctly: 1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C) 2. Remove the pork tenderloin from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels. 3. Add either 1 tablespoon of oil or butter to an oven-safe frying pan, let it melt, and heat it until it’s hot. 4. Add the pork tenderloin to the frying pan, searing until it’s brown on all sides while taking care not to overcook it. 5. Add the caramelized onions and chopped apples to the pan and let them cook for 1-2 minutes. 6. Move the pork tenderloin into the preheated oven and let it cook for 15-20 minutes, depending on the size of the pork tenderloin. 7. Check the temperature of the pork tenderloin by inserting an instant-read thermometer in the thickest part. If the temperature has reached 145°F, you can remove it from the oven. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Don’t Forget the Caramelized Onions Caramelized onions are an essential ingredient that gives your apple onion pork tenderloin an incredible flavor and aroma. Caramelizing the onions means slow-cooking them to bring out their sweetness, which complements the flavors of sweet apples and salty pork tenderloin. To caramelize the onions correctly: 1. Slice the onions into thin strips. 2. Add a tablespoon of oil or butter to a pan and heat it over medium heat. 3. Add the sliced onions to the pan and let them cook, stirring occasionally until they are brown. 4. Once the onions are brown, add salt, pepper, and sugar to enhance their flavor. 5. Cook the onions for another 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent them from sticking to the pan. They should be evenly browned and very soft. Add the Right Amount of Apples Apples are an excellent addition to apple onion pork tenderloin as they provide a sweet, tangy flavor that complements the savory flavors of the pork and onions. However, you need to determine the right amount of apples to add to your recipe, as too many apples will overpower the dish and too few will not provide enough flavor. When selecting apples for your recipe, choose firm, tart apples like Granny Smith, which can hold up to cooking and provide a lively balance to the other flavors. One medium-sized apple is enough for two servings of apple onion pork tenderloin. Conclusion In conclusion, making a perfect apple onion pork tenderloin recipe requires time, skill, and careful attention to detail. Be sure to select fresh and high-quality pork tenderloin, marinate it well, cook it at the right temperature, caramelize the onions correctly, and add the right amount of apples. Use these valuable tips, and you’ll create a delicious apple onion pork tenderloin recipe that your family and friends will love.
