Apple Orange Salad Recipes

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLE AND ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Season the pork all over with salt and pepper. Combine the mustard, maple syrup, sage, 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Rub all over the pork and set aside to marinate while you prepare the salad.
• Meanwhile, with a sharp paring knife, remove the peel and pith from the oranges. Working over a large bowl, cut along the membranes to remove the segments. Squeeze the membranes to release any remaining juice into the bowl. Add the apple, radicchio, parsley, walnuts and remaining 1 tablespoon each olive oil and lemon juice to the bowl. Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick foil. Add the pork to the pan and drizzle with any remaining marinade. Roast until a thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers 135˚ F, 15 to 20 minutes. Switch the oven to broil and broil until the marinade is browned, about 2 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.
• Slice the pork and serve with the apple and orange salad.

APPLE-ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• Cut the ends off the navel and blood oranges, then cut away the peel and white pith. Working over a bowl, cut along both sides of each membrane with a paring knife to remove the segments, allowing them to drop into the bowl. Discard any seeds. Squeeze the juice from the membranes into a small bowl (you should have about 1 cup of juice).
• Bring the reserved orange juice, honey and ginger to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until syrupy, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool completely; discard the ginger. Toss the syrup with the oranges and apples.

APPLE & ORANGE SALAD WITH HONEY-GARLIC DRESSING

Steps:

• Mix the oil, honey, garlic, salt and pepper in a jar (with lid) and shake before serving.
• Tear or cut lettuce(s) into bite-size pieces and mix with apples and oranges. Add the toasted nuts if desired and toss all with dressing. Serve immediately.
