Pork Tenderloin With Caramelized Apple Onion Relish Recipes

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Trim all silver skin from tenderloins; pat dry using paper towels. Rub 1 teaspoon vegetable oil over the surface of each tenderloin and rub with sea salt.
• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large, oven-proof skillet over medium heat until it shimmers, about 1 minute. Place tenderloins into the skillet and cook, rotating to brown all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer pork to a large plate.
• Add remaining tablespoon oil to any drippings in the skillet. Cook apples and onions in the hot oil, stirring occasionally, until onions begin to turn translucent, about 5 minutes, adding a bit more oil if skillet gets dry.
• Meanwhile, spread Dijon mustard evenly over browned tenderloins using a pastry brush. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons thyme leaves over pork. Sprinkle remaining thyme over apple mixture and add black pepper; stir gently to combine. Nestle tenderloins into the skillet with apple mixture.
• Roast, uncovered, in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the tenderloins reads at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 15 minutes.
• Remove skillet from the oven and place pork onto a plate. Cover with aluminum foil and let rest.
• Meanwhile, pour chicken stock into a saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until reduced by 1/2, 8 to 10 minutes. Add to the skillet containing apple mixture.
• Heat over medium-high heat until boiling, about 5 minutes; stir in butter until melted. Slice pork and serve over apple mixture.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH CARAMELIZED APPLE & ONION RELISH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Season all sides of pork with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1 TBS Olive Oil in a large oven proof skillet over high heat. Add tenderloin to pan and cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side to create a nice searing effect.
• Transfer pan to oven and bake at 450 degrees for about 15-18 minutes (or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees). Remove from oven and allow to rest for 10-15 minutes. Slice across the grain in 1/2 inch slices.
• While the tenderloin is baking, add 1 TBS Olive Oil to another large skillet and heat to medium-high. Add onions. Sprinkle with some salt and pepper. Cook until translucent (about 3-4 minutes). Add apples. Continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes or until mixture begins to caramelize. Add maple syrup. Lower heat to medium low and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
• Serve tenderloin slices on top of a bed of the apple & onion mixture. Enjoy!
