Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Kosher salt
One 1-pound pork tenderloin
4 thin slices prosciutto
Olive oil
Two 1/4-inch-thick slices pancetta, diced
1/2 shallot, minced
Kosher salt
1/4 cup bourbon
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
2 peaches, peeled, pitted and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 stick cinnamon
Thyme bundle
Olive oil, if needed
1 bunch asparagus, stems removed and discarded

Steps:

  • For the pork: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Sprinkle salt on the pork, then wrap the pork in the prosciutto and secure with toothpicks. Coat a large saute pan with oil and heat over high heat. Sear the pork on all sides, then transfer to a quarter sheet tray and roast for 8 to 10 minutes, turning the pork halfway through cooking. Reserve the saute pan with the drippings for a later use.
  • For the chutney: Heat a large, straight-sided saute pan over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook to render the fat. Add in the shallots and season with salt, and cook until soft and aromatic, 6 minutes. Add in the bourbon, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, peaches, cinnamon, thyme bundle and some salt, and stir to combine. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Simmer, stirring the peaches frequently until the liquid evaporates and the peaches are a chutney-like consistency, 10 minutes. Check to make sure the peaches are cooked through. Remove and discard the thyme bundle and cinnamon stick. Blend with an immersion blender if needed to achieve the correct consistency.
  • For the asparagus: Return the reserved saute pan to the stove, add some oil if needed. Add the asparagus to the pan and saute until tender.

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

12 ounces pork tenderloin
1 teaspoon fish sauce
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/3 cup low sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons lime juice
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup minced lemongrass, from 2 stalks (trim all but bottom 3-4 inches, remove tough outer sheath, then cut finely)

3 1/2 tablespoons peanut oil or 3 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 lb asparagus, cut on the diagonal into 2-inch pieces
1/4 cup water
1 large onion, cut into 1/4-to 3/8-inch wedges
2 -3 tablespoons chopped fresh Thai basil

Steps:

  • Freeze the tenderloin until firm, 20 to 30 minutes. Cut the tenderloin crosswise into 1/3-inch-thick medallions. Slice each medaillon into 1/3-inch-wide strips.
  • Combine the pork, 1 tsp fish sauce, and the soy sauce in a small bowl.
  • Whisk the remaining 2 tbsp fish sauce, the chicken broth, lime juice, brown sugar, and cornstarch in a measuring cup.

Add the water, cover the pan, and lower the heat to medium. Steam the asparagus until tender-crisp, about 2 minutes; transfer the asparagus to the bowl with the pork.
  • Add the remaining 1 1/2 tsps oil to the skillet or wok; add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown and soften, about two minutes.
  • Clear the center of the skillet; add the garlic and lemon grass mixture to the clearing and cook, mashing the mixture with a spoon, until fragrant, about 1 minute, then stir the mixture into the onion. Return the pork and asparagus to the skillet and toss to combine. Whisk the sauce to recombine, then add to the skillet/wok; cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce is thickened and evenly distributed, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a serving platter and sprinkle with the thai basil. Serve immediately.
