Stuffed Pork Loin With Cider Sauce Food

ROASTED PORK LOIN WITH CIDER AND CHUNKY APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a food processor, combine the chopped herbs with the garlic, crushed red pepper, a generous pinch of salt and enough olive oil to make a paste. Brush the paste on the outside of the pork rib roast.
• Toss the onions with olive oil, and salt, and place in the bottom of a roasting pan. Add the thyme, bay leaves and 2/3 of the cider. Place the pork on top of the onions and place in the preheated oven. Roast the pork at 425 degrees F for 20 to 25 minutes or until the pork has developed a lovely brown crust. Check the pork, stir the onions and cider if they are starting to burn. Add more cider when the level starts to go down.
• Lower the oven to 375 degrees F and roast for another 30 to 35 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer reads 150 degrees F. If the crust on the pork starts to get too dark, cover it with foil. Remove 1 1/2 cups of the cider from the bottom of the roasting pan and reserve for the applesauce.
• Let the pork rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. When ready to carve remove the pork from the bone and cut the loin into thin slices. Serve with the onions braised in cider and Chunky Applesauce.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan large enough to accommodate the apples. Add the apples and saute over medium-low heat until the apples start to soften. Add the reserved cider, apple cider and cinnamon and cook over low-medium heat until most of the cider has evaporated and the apples are cooked and very soft.
• Add the heavy cream and walnuts and cook until the cream has reduced by half. The end result should be a very chunky, sweet/savory applesauce.

PORK TENDERLOIN STEAKS WITH MUSTARD CIDER SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut the pork tenderloin into 1-inch-thick steaks on a long bias. Season the steaks all over with salt and black pepper, then toss in the flour to coat.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the foam subsides. Shake the excess flour off the meat and add it to the skillet. Cook, flipping once, until cooked to medium and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers about 150 degrees F, about 4 minutes per side. Remove the pork steaks to a platter and lower the heat under the skillet to medium.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and the shallots. Cook, stirring, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the cider, mustard, parsley, chives and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper.

Rub pork loin completely with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and sprinkle both sides with 1 teaspoon of sage. Spread stuffing mixture on pork, leaving a ½-inch border. Roll up roast trying to keep stuffing inside, and tie with kitchen string at 2-inch intervals. (It actually was easier for me to cut the roast in half and roll up each half separately).
• Arrange apple wedges in a single layer in the bottom of a 13- x 9-inch roasting pan. Place roast(s), seam sides down, on apples.
• Bake at 450° for 25 minutes. Reduce temperature to 425°; bake 25 more minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted into thickest portion registers 155°. Remove from oven and place on platter tented with foil; let stand 15 minutes or until thermometer reaches 160° before slicing. Discard apples.
