Rachael Ray Roasted Pork Tenderloin Recipes

POTTED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH SWEET ONIONS AND APPLE

Steps:

• Season the pork with fennel, salt, and pepper, and dredge in flour. Heat a few tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, a couple turns of the pan, in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the pork and brown the meat. Do this in 2 batches if your pot size demands it. Use a little extra oil if necessary for a second batch. Remove the browned meat to a plate and add the butter to the pan. Reduce the heat a bit and add the onions, apples, bay leaves, and sage. Season with salt and pepper and cover the pan to sweat the onions for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Uncover the pot and raise the heat a bit. When the onions start to brown, add the calvados to the pot. Add the stock, slide the pork back in, and simmer to cook through a few minutes more. Serve from the hot pot.

CUBAN STYLE PORK TENDERLOIN SANDWICHES AND FRIED PLANTAINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Coat tenderloins with oil. Combine onion, garlic, citrus zest, salt, pepper and dried oregano in a pile on your cutting board. Pack this coating equally and evenly onto the tenderloins. Heat a large skillet. Add a drizzle of oil and sear tenderloin on all sides. Then place in hot oven to roast 20 to 25 minutes. Wash hands.
• Brush rolls with a little warm water and sprinkle the tops of the rolls with 1/2 teaspoon sugar each. Pile rolls on a baking sheet and place in oven with meat for 5 minutes to crust rolls and set sugar. Authentic Cuban rolls used for this sandwich are sweet. This sugar wash process gives a similar effect to store bought rolls. When rolls come out of oven, split and pile on serving plate.
• Preheat a stovetop griddle over medium high heat.
• Heat 1/4 cup corn oil in a heavy skillet over medium high heat. Peel plantains and cut in 1/2 lengthwise, then slice each 1/2 into thirds on an angle. Arrange plantains in pan in a single layer and cook until crisp, continuously flipping for even browning. Remove from skillet to paper towel lined plate and season with fine salt.
• To assemble sandwiches: Thinly slice meat on an angle. Place ham and Swiss cheese on a serving plate, separating and fluffing up the shaved meat and cheese. Assemble sandwiches with desired fillings and place on a hot, buttered griddle. Use a heavy pan to press the sandwiches together. Toast until golden brown, then flip and toast the other side.
• Combine chopped pickles, sweet red pepper relish and scallions in a small bowl.
• Spread the relish on the tops of the rolls and pork slices, ham, and swiss cheese on the bottoms. Press the sandwiches together. Put about 1 tablespoon of butter on the hot griddle and spread to coat. Put 2 sandwiches at a time on the griddle, and top with a heavy cast-iron skillet. Toast sandwiches on the griddle, turning once, until golden, hot, and cheese is melted, 2 or 3 minutes per side.
• Serve with a few slices of plantains per person as a side dish. Frozen Mojitos Slushes make a great drink or dessert.
• In a blender, combine 1/2 pint sorbet or 1/2 can of lime aid with 4 shots of rum, 1/4 cup mint leaves and 1/2 tray of ice. Pulse, then blend on high until lime-mint slush is smooth. Pour drinks into 2 large cocktail glasses using a long handled spoon and repeat with remaining ingredients.
