Polish Pork Tenderloin in Apple-Onion Sauce & Sauerkraut image

Made this for Easter with fresh pork from a local farm. ABSOLUTELY delicious and tender. Very unfussy, great for everyday. I use Polish Grill Seasoning but you can use any seasoning or make your own with any combo such as 1 tsp. each of marjoram, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb pork tenderloin
salt & pepper
1 tablespoon pork seasoning
flour, to coat
1 tablespoon oil, fat or 1 tablespoon butter
8 ounces sauerkraut
onion soup mix, 1/2 packet
1 cup applesauce or 2 apples
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/2 cup apple juice, separated in half

Steps:

  • *If using fresh apples, peel, core and dice the apples. Simmer in a little apple juice or water, covered until soft. Mash with a potato masher and you have easy, fresh, homemade applesauce!

  • Heat oil or butter over medium-high heat, add loin and brown on all sides.
  • Add undrained sauerkraut to an oven dish and place loin on top.
  • Add applesauce, onion soup mix, brown sugar and ginger to the skillet used to cook the pork. Mix well and spoon over the top of the pork.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of the apple juice to the bottom of the pan, over the sauerkraut.
  • Cover dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes, basting halfway through.
  • After 30 minutes, remove foil, add the other 1/4 cup of apple juice, baste again and cook for 15 more minutes, uncovered.
  • Remove from oven and let pork sit for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
  • Slice and serve over the sauerkraut.
