Spiced Rubbed Pork Tenderloin With Root Beer Reduction Recipes

SPICE-RUBBED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Put the pork on the prepared baking sheet, brush with the peanut oil and rub all over with the five-spice powder. Sprinkle the pork with salt and pepper. Broil, flipping once, until golden and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat registers about 145 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the meat to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the vinegar, ginger, mirin, soy sauce and lime juice in a small bowl. Whisk in the sesame oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Slice the pork, drizzle with the vinaigrette and serve with the rice and broccoli.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH SEASONED RUB

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• In separate bowl mix dry ingredients such as garlic powder, oregano, cumin, coriander, thyme and salt. Stir mixture with a fork until all the ingredients are well combined and they form a seasoning. This will be used as a rub to ensure the pork is well seasoned throughout. Sprinkle the rub over the tenderloin with a dry hand, then rub the pork with the seasoning over both sides of the meat, pressing gently so the seasoning adheres well to the tenderloin.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and heat. Add the minced garlic and saute, stirring, for 1 minute. Put tenderloin in the pan and cook for about 10 minutes, searing each side using tongs to turn the meat. Transfer meat to a roasting pan and bake for 20 minutes. Slice and serve.

Promptly remove from the oven and let rest at least 15 minutes.
• Serve with the Bourbon-Chipotle Sauce.
• Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook the onions until soft, and then pour in 2 cups of the bourbon and cook until reduced to a few tablespoons. Stir in the chicken stock, apple juice, brown sugar, peppercorns and chipotle, and cook until reduced by half.
