Provided by Chef Scott Gorsky

Time 40m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

14 oz. Pork Tenderloin
10 oz. Carrots
9 oz. Swiss Chard
3 oz. Thyme Sprigs
2 oz. Apricot Preserves
Info 1 oz. Sour Cream
1 Tbsp. Tahini
2 Garlic Cloves
2 tsp. Sesame Seeds
1 tsp. Ground Coriander
¼ tsp. Red Pepper Flakes

Steps:

  • Cooking Guidelines To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures: Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) | Seafood 145° F | Chicken 165° F | Ground Beef 160° F | Ground Turkey 165° F | Ground Pork 160° F 1 Prepare the Ingredients Thoroughly rinse produce and pat dry. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and prepare a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Stem chard and roughly chop leaves. Roughly chop garlic. Peel carrots and cut into 1" chunks. Stem thyme sprigs. In a small mixing bowl, combine sour cream with tahini and 2 Tbsp. of water. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Rinse pork tenderloin and pat dry. Slice pork tenderloin into 1" medallions and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. 2 Cook the Carrots Arrange carrots on baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Season with coriander and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast in oven for 20 minutes or until fork tender and lightly caramelized. 3 Cook the Pork Tenderloin Medallions Heat 1 tsp. of olive oil in a medium pan. Working in two batches, add half of the medallions to pan and sear 4 minutes on first side. Flip medallions, sear for another 3 minutes, then remove to a plate. Drain excess fat from pan and repeat with second batch, removing them to the plate when finished so the pan is empty for the glaze. 4 Finish the Apricot Glaze Add apricot preserves, thyme leaves, ¼ cup of water, and red pepper flakes (to taste - start with a pinch, taste, and add more if desired) to pan, and mix well to combine. Return pork medallions to the pan and bring glaze to a simmer. Cook for 5-6 minutes, turning once, until mixture is thickened, pork medallions are glazed, and a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees is reached. Remove medallions and any glaze in pan to a clean plate and set aside. Wipe out pan and return to heat. 5 Cook the Chard Heat 1 tsp. of fresh olive oil in pan and add minced garlic and chopped chard. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and stir often, until leaves begin to wilt, about 2-3 minutes. Toss in sesame seeds, stir to coat evenly, and prepare to serve. 6 Plate the Dish Place a serving of carrots and chard next to the plated pork medallions. Top chard with a drizzle of sour cream-tahini mixture, and dig in!
