Apple Brandy Glazed Pork Tenderloin Food

APPLE GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking dish large enough to hold the tenderloin without folding it.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and brown the pork tenderloin on all sides. Remove the browned tenderloin to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle all sides of the meat with salt, pepper, and parsley.
• Cook and stir the onion and apple in the same skillet over medium heat until the onion becomes soft, about 5 minutes, and pour in the Riesling wine. Scrape all the browned flavor bits off the bottom of the skillet and stir to help dissolve them into the wine. Bring to a boil, and pour the onion, apple, and wine mixture over the tenderloin.
• Mix together the apple jelly and balsamic vinegar in a bowl until the mixture is smooth and without lumps. Spread the jelly mixture all over the pork.
• Bake loin in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), 30 to 45 minutes. Allow the tenderloin to rest for 10 minutes before slicing, and serve each slice with a spoonful of the apple-onion mixture.

APPLE GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Peel, core, and cut the apples into 1-inch dice and toss with melted butter in a large bowl. Scatter the apples in the bottom of a roasting pan fitted with a rack.
• Season the tenderloin generously with salt and pepper and place on the rack in the roasting pan. Whisk together all remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Put the tenderloin in oven until internal temperature registers 160 to165 degrees on an instant-read thermometer, about 30 to 40 minutes. During the last 10 minutes of cooking brush with half of the glaze. Remove from oven, brush with remaining glaze and allow to rest for 10 minutes on a cutting board before slicing. Serve with roasted apples.

APPLE PICKING BRAISED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large braiser or Dutch oven over high heat. Pat the pork dry with paper towels and season all over with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add to the pot and sear until golden brown on all sides, about 6 minutes. Remove to a plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium-high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the red onion to the pot. Cook, stirring frequently, until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the farro and toast for 1 minute. Add the apple cider and scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon. Add the chicken broth, grainy and regular Dijon and the thyme and bring to a strong simmer, about 2 minutes.
• Return the pork to the pot along with any residual juices. Braise in the oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part reaches 145 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pork to a cutting board, tent loosely with aluminum foil and allow to rest.
• Stir the apple into the farro mixture. Bake until most of the liquid evaporates and the farro and apples are just tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove the thyme sprigs from the farro and stir in the escarole to wilt. Slice the pork into 1/2-inch-thick medallions. Serve the sliced pork over the farro and apples, topped with the parsley.
