Polish Pork Tenderloin in Apple-Onion Sauce & Sauerkraut image

Made this for Easter with fresh pork from a local farm. ABSOLUTELY delicious and tender. Very unfussy, great for everyday. I use Polish Grill Seasoning but you can use any seasoning or make your own with any combo such as 1 tsp. each of marjoram, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika.

TERIYAKI, DIJON PORK TENDERLOIN W/ MUSHROOMS/ONION/BAKED APPLE



Teriyaki, Dijon Pork Tenderloin W/ Mushrooms/Onion/Baked Apple image

My entry into the 2009 Canadian Living Magazine Cook of the Year Contest. The recipe did not make the cut, but it is tasty and certainly worthy of sharing. You will note the absence of salt and/or pepper. I am thinking there is sufficient sodium and seasonings in the Teriyaki sauce and Dijon Mustard to justify eliminating additional seasoning from the recipe.... Salt/Sodium should never overpower other ingredients. If additional salt is requested, by all means, do provide it, but suggest that they taste first, and salt second. Pork Tenderloin can be purchased from your local supermarket in packages of two tenderloins, weighing approximately one kilo. This is usually sufficient for a dinner serving 4. This recipe was originally developed to serve 8; you will therefore require two packages of pork tenderloin - 2 loins per package..... As they say in Ontario "PUT PORK ON YOUR FORK".

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 fresh pork tenderloin
1/3 cup water
3 -4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 cooking apple
1 medium size cooking onion, sliced
8 medium size fresh mushrooms
2 garlic cloves, peeled, crushed and chopped fine
2 tablespoons rubbed sage
1/3 cup liquid honey
1/3 cup teriyaki sauce
1/4 cup smooth Dijon mustard
15 -20 cherry tomatoes (to garnish)
2 -3 sprigs fresh herbs (to garnish, eg, parsley, sage, rosemary)

Steps:

  • Oven 350°F.
  • Peel, core and rough chop the apple. In a small, covered sauce pan add 1/3 C water and chopped apple. Over medium/low heat, cook into unsweetened apple sauce. If the apple sauce is a bit lumpy, that's OK; it will cook down during the roasting process. Mix well, then set aside for later use.
  • Clean and quarter mushrooms.
  • Add about 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil to a saute pan deep enough to hold all the mushrooms, with stems, and sliced onion. Over medium heat, clarify onion; add mushrooms and garlic; cover the pan, and allow to saute, for about 5 minutes.
  • Add rubbed sage to mushroom/onion mixture and combine well. Remove from heat.
  • In a mixing bowl, place honey, teriyaki sauce, Dijon mustard; add unsweetened apple sauce (which you had set aside).
  • Add mushrooms and onion to honey mixture and mix well.
  • Add additional olive oil to same frying pan and brown pork tenderloin on all sides.
  • Arrange pork tenderloin in oval, roasting pan with a cover. Roasting pan should comfortably accommodate all 4 tenderloins. Pour prepared mushroom/onion mixture over tenderloins in roasting pan. Cover and bake one hour.
  • When done, remove tenderloin from roasting pan to warmed serving platter. Cover with foil and allow to sit for about 10 minutes. Return roasting pan to low heat on stove top, to keep the sauce hot.
  • Carve each tenderloin in half. You will have 8 tenderloin pieces, 6 to 8 oz. each. Arrange on warmed serving platter and spoon mushroom/onion sauce over the meat. Arrange cherry tomatoes around the serving platter; garnish with sprigs of fresh herbs.
  • Serve with rice, orzo, potatoes, and vegetables of your choosing; additional sauce in a gravy boat would not go amiss.

Tips:

  • When choosing pork tenderloin, look for one that is firm to the touch and has a light pink color.
  • To ensure the pork tenderloin is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should read 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check the doneness of the pork tenderloin by cutting into it. The meat should be slightly pink in the center.
  • For a more flavorful pork tenderloin, marinate it in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Serve the pork tenderloin with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Apple onion pork tenderloin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. By following the tips above, you can ensure that your pork tenderloin turns out perfectly cooked and flavorful. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to cook pork tenderloin, give this recipe a try.
