Brown Sugared Pork Tenderloin Recipes

BROWN SUGAR AND MUSTARD PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Generously season tenderloin with salt and pepper. Set aside. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together mustard, brown sugar and thyme.
• Place a large sheet of Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil onto a baking sheet. Place onion slices in the center of the foil, in a single layer. Place pork over the onions and brush with 1/2 of the mustard mixture.
• Bring up foil sides. Double fold top and ends to seal packet, leaving room for heat circulation inside. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the internal temperature reads 130 degrees F.
• Remove from oven. Open packet carefully by cutting along top fold with a sharp knife, allowing steam to escape. When uncovered, brush with remaining mustard mixture. Leaving the packet open, broil for about 1 minute or until a nice crust forms on top. Remove from the oven and allow tenderloin to rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.

BROWN SUGAR ROASTED PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400ºF. In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, cayenne, garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and olive oil.
• Place the pork loin on a parchment lined baking sheet or in a large casserole dish with the fat cap facing up. Begin packing the brown sugar and spice mixture all over the surface of the pork loin (no need to get the bottom). The moisture from the pork loin should help the sugar mixture stick to the surface.
• Transfer the pork loin to the oven. Roast at 400ºF for ten minutes, then reduce the heat to 350ºF and continue to roast for about 15 minutes per pound of roast, or until the internal temperature reaches 145ºF. Always use a meat thermometer just to be sure.
• After roasting, let the pork loin rest for 10 minutes before slicing into ½-inch thick slices and serving.

GARLIC BROWN SUGAR PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F (200C). Spray a baking dish with cooking spray.
• In a small bowl, stir together mustard, brown sugar, olive oil, garlic, and thyme.
• Place sliced onion in a single layer in bottom of prepared dish.
• Season pork with salt and pepper on all sides, and then place on top of onion in the dish.
• Brush half of the mustard mixture over the pork.
• Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
• Remove cover, brush with remaining mustard sauce, and put under the broiler for about 5 minutes (or until a crispy crust forms on top), and pork reaches an internal temperature of 140-150 degrees F.
• Remove from oven and allow pork to rest for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

BROWN SUGAR AND BALSAMIC GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Combine brown sugar, water, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, and cornstarch in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking sheet.
• Combine garlic, sage, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub garlic mixture over pork tenderloins.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange tenderloins in the skillet and brown evenly, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer pork to the prepared baking sheet and brush with the balsamic glaze.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn pork, brush again with glaze, and continue cooking until pork is slightly pink in the center, about 20 minutes more, or until desired doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Remove tenderloin to a platter. Allow to rest for 10 minutes. Drizzle a little extra glaze over the top. Carve and serve with remaining glaze on the side.

OVEN-ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH BROWN SUGAR GARLIC GLAZE

Steps:

• In a small bowl stir together the salt, black pepper, cumin, chili powder and cinnamon.
• Using clean hands rub the spice mixture over the pork to coat well.
• Heat a large heavy oven-proof skillet with oil over medium-high heat until very hot.
• Add in tenderloins (if you have a large enough skillet to brown both at the same time).
• Brown the pork on all sides then leave in the skillet.
• Set oven to 350 degrees F.
• To make the glaze: Stir together brown sugar, garlic and Tabasco; pat onto the top of each tenderloin.
• Roast in the middle of the oven for about 20-22 minutes, or until a thermometer registers 140°F.
• Let sit in the skillet for 10 minutes at room temperature (the temperature of the pork will rise to about 155F while standing for the 10 minutes).
• Remove to a board and slice.
• Delicious!
