SPICY PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLES AND SWEET POTATOES



Spicy Pork Tenderloin with Apples and Sweet Potatoes image

Jazz up your pork tenderloin with this spicy-sweet combo of apples, cider, sweet potatoes, and as much or as little heat as your palate requires! This easy oven dish only needs one other pot to reduce the sauce on top of the stove. It is large enough for a crowd or for leftovers later in the week. Add a green veggie or a salad, and some crusty dinner bread, and you are good to go!

Time 1h25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 17

cooking spray
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 (1 1/2 pound) pork tenderloins
4 apples, peeled and cut into 8 pieces each
1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
4 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
1 ½ cups apple cider
1 lime, juiced
½ teaspoon granulated garlic
½ teaspoon ground ginger
⅛ teaspoon chipotle chile powder
⅛ teaspoon garam masala
salt and ground black pepper to taste
aluminum foil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Mix together 1 tablespoon ginger, brown sugar, 1 teaspoon chili powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl to create a rub. Rub combined seasonings on all sides of the pork tenderloins, using the entire amount.
  • Place apples and sweet potatoes in the bottom of the prepared pan; dot with butter.
  • Mix together apple cider, lime juice, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon ginger, 1/8 teaspoon chili powder, garam masala, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Pour over apples and sweet potatoes and place tenderloins on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Ladle cooking liquid over apples and sweet potatoes, turn tenderloins over, and continue baking until pork is slightly pink at the center, about 20 minutes longer. A meat thermometer placed in the center of the thickest tenderloin should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
  • Remove apples and sweet potatoes to a serving platter using a slotted spoon. Place tenderloins on top and cover with aluminum foil.
  • Pour cooking liquid from the baking dish into a 1-quart saucepan. Heat over medium-high heat until liquid comes to a boil. Boil, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is reduced by one half, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Drizzle sauce over pork, apples, and sweet potatoes. Slice tenderloins and serve.

SWEET AND SPICY GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN



Sweet and Spicy Grilled Pork Tenderloin image

This is my absolute favorite marinade for pork tenderloin. It is simple, sweet, warm flavors and a little spice with some red pepper. Just marinade in a large baggie anywhere from 4-8 hours and grill. You can use an indoor grill, but I prefer outdoor.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Asian

Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon white pepper
2 (1 pound) pork tenderloins, silver skins removed
1 ¾ cups chicken broth
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon avocado oil
½ cup no-sugar-added apricot preserves
2 teaspoons sambal oelek, or to taste
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Turn on an 8-quart multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®), select Saute function, and allow to preheat.
  • Combine paprika, salt, ground ginger, and white pepper in a small bowl. Rub tenderloins on all sides with the mixture.
  • Combine chicken broth, soy sauce, and rice vinegar in a separate bowl; you should have 2 cups, the recommended amount of cooking liquid in an 8-quart pot. Check your owner's manual for recommended liquid amount for other sizes and adjust accordingly.
  • Pour avocado oil into the Instant Pot® and heat until shimmering. Add tenderloins to brown, about 2 minutes per side. Remove tenderloins to a plate, add liquid mixture to the pot, and scrape the browned bits from the bottom of the pot, stirring all together. Turn off Saute function.
  • Place a rack or trivet into the Instant Pot® and place tenderloins on the rack. Close and lock the lid and set vent to Sealing. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 1 minute. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Let pork cook until internal temperature reaches 135 to 140 degrees F (57 to 60 degrees C). Place tenderloins on a cutting board and cover with foil to rest while you make the glaze. Internal temperature should rise to 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove about 3 tablespoons of cooking liquid and set aside.
  • Select Saute function and bring remaining cooking liquid in the pot to a boil. Allow to reduce to about 1 cup, 3 to 10 minutes, depending on how much liquid was used for the size of the pot. Add preserves, sambal oelek, grated ginger, garlic, and sesame oil; cook for about 2 minutes.
  • Create a slurry of the reserved 3 tablespoons cooking liquid and cornstarch in a small bowl. Continue cooking on the Saute function and add the slurry, stirring constantly until the liquid comes to a boil and thickens slightly. Pour glaze carefully into a container.
  • Slice the pork, drizzle with glaze, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and garnish with cilantro. Serve warm with additional glaze for dipping, if desired.

SWEET-AND-SPICY PORK TENDERLOIN



Sweet-And-Spicy Pork Tenderloin image

Not sure where I picked this up from, but here's the quote that it came with: Says Alexander: "When people hear that I'm a "healthy chef," they often assume I'm a vegetarian, which, to anyone who knows me, is a ridiculous notion. I love meat ... all kinds, really, but this pork roast is of my favorites. In fact, my friend Marjorie and I made this roast one night and we loved it so much we wanted to eat the whole thing. When cooked right, this is as tender as can be."

Categories     Pork

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon ground chipotle chile pepper
1 1/4 lbs pork tenderloin, trimmed of visible fat
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 1/2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce

Steps:

  • Lightly mist a small roasting pan or ovenproof skillet with olive oil spray. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine the cumin, cinnamon, salt, black pepper, allspice, garlic powder, and chipotle pepper.
  • Rub the pork evenly with the olive oil. Then rub evenly with the spice mixture until coated. Cover loosely with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the honey, garlic, and hot-pepper sauce. Whisk to mix. Set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.

  • Transfer to the prepared pan. With a basting brush, evenly coat the pork with the reserved honey mixture. Roast the tenderloin in the oven for 16 to 18 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted in the center reaches 160°F and the juices run clear.

SWEET AND SPICY SRIRACHA PORK TENDERLOIN



SWEET AND SPICY SRIRACHA PORK TENDERLOIN image

Categories     Pork     Bake     Dinner

Number Of Ingredients 11

(1) 2.5 lb pkg. of pork tenderloins
6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/4 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons sriracha sauce
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon lime zest
3 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon seasoning salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 (F). Remove tenderloins from package. Rinse them with cold water and pat dry. If you're uncomfortable rinsing the meat, just be sure to pat it dry. Spray a 9x13 pan with non-stick spray, then place the tenderloins in the pan. Using a paring knife, poke small holes in the tenderloins (on the top side only). Peel garlic cloves and slice them into very thin slivers. Place the garlic slivers into the cut pockets on the pork. Set aside. In a large measuring cup or in a medium-sized bowl, whisk together all of the wet ingredients except for the olive oil. Slowly drizzle the olive oil in while mixing, whisking until completely combined. Pour the mixture over the tenderloins, coating all pieces well. Bake, uncovered, for 55 minutes, basting every 20 minutes or so. Once the pork is fully cooked, remove pan from the oven, transfer meat to a cutting board, and allow them to rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing. While the pork is resting, make a glaze from the leftover juices. Place all juice/marinade from the pan into a small sauté pan. Simmer over medium-high heat until slightly thickened; about 8 minutes. Spoon the pan sauce over the tenderloin, cut, and enjoy!
