Provided by Aida Mollenkamp

Categories     main-dish

Time 33m

Yield 4 to 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 (1 pound) pork tenderloins, cut in 1/2 crosswise
Vegetable oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups apple cider
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup maple syrup

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 500 degrees F and arrange rack in the upper third.
  • Pat pork tenderloins dry with paper towels, brush with oil, and season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 pieces of pork tenderloin and cook until brown on all sides, turning occasionally, about 4 minutes. Set pork aside on a baking sheet and repeat with remaining pieces.
  • Place pork in oven and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the middle of the tenderloin registers 145 to 150 degrees F, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, place pan over high heat, add cider and vinegar and stir, scraping up any browned bits. Cook until mixture is reduced by 2/3, about 8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, stir in maple syrup and remove from heat until pork is cooked.
  • When pork is ready, remove to a cutting board to rest about 5 minutes. Warm sauce over medium-high heat, add pork and any accumulated juices and spoon sauce over meat to completely coat. When pork is warm, return pork to cutting board and slice thinly. Serve with pan sauce spooned over.

CIDER-ROASTED PORK LOIN WITH PICKLED APPLES AND CHILES



Cider-Roasted Pork Loin With Pickled Apples and Chiles image

Roasting a pork loin on a bed of apples, onions and cinnamon moistened with cider gives the meat a caramelized sweetness and spicy perfume. The roast browns on top while the apples and onions collapse into a meltingly tender, golden heap beneath it. Then, to offset all the soft richness, bright and tangy pickled apples and chiles are served alongside. It's a dish that's both company worthy and cozy, as perfect for a Sunday supper, spooned over mashed potatoes or polenta, as it is served to guests alongside an elegant gratin. Keep some extra apple cider on hand to add to the pan if it dries out and starts to burn. Just a splash or two should do it.

Time 3h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/4 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon allspice berries
1/4 teaspoon coriander seeds
Pinch kosher salt
1 large tart apple, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices
2 small jalapeños, seeded and thinly sliced
1 (2 1/2 to 3-pound) boneless pork loin (not tenderloin)
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary, plus more rosemary sprigs for garnish
2 teaspoons fennel seeds, coarsely crushed
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 large, tart apple, halved, cored, and sliced into 1/4-inch slices
1 onion, halved and cut into 1/4-inch slices
3 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
1 cinnamon stick, broken in half
1/2 cup chicken stock, more as needed
About 1 cup (8 fluid ounces) hard apple cider or chicken stock, more as needed
1 tablespoon butter, cubed

Steps:

  • To make the pickled apples, in a small pot, combine 1/4 cup water with vinegar, sugar, allspice, coriander and salt. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Put apples and jalapeños in a medium heatproof bowl or jar, and pour hot vinegar mixture on top. Let cool to room temperature and let pickle for at least 2 hours. (Mixture can be made up to 1 week ahead and stored in the refrigerator.)
  • Rub pork all over with rosemary, fennel seeds, salt and pepper. Refrigerate, fat side up and uncovered, for at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place pork on a rimmed 11-by-18-inch sheet pan. Scatter apples, onion, garlic and cinnamon stick in an even layer around pork loin. Transfer baking sheet to oven rack, and add chicken stock, then carefully pour in cider (it's best to position pan in oven, then pour in liquid). You may not need all of the cider here. You can add more later as it roasts - stop if it threatens to overflow.
  • Roast until pork reaches 135 degrees internally, 35 to 50 minutes. Keep an eye on the pork. If all the cider evaporates and baking dish starts to burn while the pork is cooking, add a splash more cider.
  • Transfer pork to a cutting board, tent with foil, and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, transfer roasted apples, onions and garlic to a serving platter (discard cinnamon sticks). Scrape jus and any golden bits from baking sheet into a small pot, and bring to a simmer (add a little more chicken stock if needed). Whisk in butter and a pinch of salt and cook until the sauce is reduced by about a third (you just want to thicken it up a bit), 3 to 7 minutes. Pour in any juices from the cutting board where the pork loin is resting.
  • Slice pork and place on a serving platter, along with the roasted apples and onions. Drizzle some of the sauce and also some of the liquid from the pickled apples on top. Garnish with the rosemary, and serve with pickled apples and jalapeños alongside.

Provided by Kroger

Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 Kroger® Boneless Whole Pork Tenderloin
2 dried bay leaves
4 tablespoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorn
1 teaspoon whole fennel seeds
2 teaspoons whole anise seeds
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
3 cups apple cider
½ cup maple syrup
2 ½ tablespoons fresh sage, minced
2 ½ tablespoons fresh rosemary, minced
2 ½ tablespoons fresh thyme, minced
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
¼ cup maple syrup
½ cup apple cider
1 ½ teaspoons olive oil
½ cup white wine
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
½ cup apple cider
1 cup chicken stock, divided, plus 2 teaspoons
¾ cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons cornstarch
½ teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Place the Kroger® Boneless Whole Pork Tenderloin in a gallon-size resealable bag. Add the bay leaves, salt, black peppercorns, fennel seeds, anise seeds, garlic, cinnamon, apple cider, and maple syrup to the bag. Shake the bag until the pork loin is well coated. Seal the bag and transfer to the refrigerator to marinate for 2 hours, or overnight.
  • Meanwhile, make the rub: In a small bowl, whisk together the sage, rosemary, thyme, garlic, maple syrup, and apple cider.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Transfer the pork loin from the bag to a cutting board and pat dry with paper towels. Spoon the rub all over the pork loin.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Starting with the fattiest side, sear the pork loin on all sides until light golden brown, 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Transfer the seared pork loin to a 9x13" baking dish and cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 40 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for 5 minutes more, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  • Meanwhile make the gravy: Place the skillet used to sear the pork loin over medium heat. Deglaze with the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until the wine is reduced by half, about 1 minute. Add the balsamic vinegar, apple cider, 1 cup of chicken stock, and the heavy cream. Simmer for about 3 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and remaining 2 teaspoons of chicken stock until smooth. Pour the slurry into the gravy and stir to combine. Simmer for another 3 minutes, or until the gravy thickens. Stir in the salt. Strain the gravy through a fine-mesh sieve into a gravy boat or medium bowl. Keep warm until ready to serve.
  • Serve the pork roast warm with the apple cider gravy and holiday vegetables of choice alongside.
  • Enjoy!

CIDER-ROASTED PORK LOIN



Cider-Roasted Pork Loin image

I got this recipe from my sister and I believe she got it from Cooking Light Magazine. When I made it, I thought it wasn't thoroughly cooked because it's so juicy and I can't ever get my pork to turn out that way! Also, I had to use 2 (1 pound) pork loins because I could not find 1 (2 pound) loin and I just split the marinade into two seperate bags. I am guessing on the cooking/prep time.

ROASTED PORK LOIN WITH CIDER GLAZE



Roasted Pork Loin with Cider Glaze image

If you order the pork from a butcher, have the rib rack reserved; use it as a roasting rack for more tender and juicy meat.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Yield Makes enough for 10 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 boneless pork loin (5 1/4 to 6 pounds), rolled and tied
3 tablespoons dry mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
4 cups sparkling or regular apple cider
2 tablespoons apple-cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Rinse pork and pat dry. Rub mustard over it and season with the salt and pepper and place in a large nonreactive pan. Pour cider and vinegar over and refrigerate, turning often, for at least 3 hours or up to overnight.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Let pork come to room temperature. Drain off marinade and reserve in a small saucepan.
  • If using, place rib rack in roasting pan; rest the pork in the curve of the bones. Otherwise, place pork directly in roasting pan.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees and place pork in oven. Roast, basting with pan juices, until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the pork reads 155 degrees to 160 degrees, about 1 hour and 40 to 50 minutes with the rack and 1 hour and 15 minutes without the rack. Test after 1 hour of cooking to make sure it does not overcook.
  • Meanwhile, place saucepan of marinade over medium-low heat; simmer until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 1 hour; it will reduce to about 1/3 cup. Brush over pork during last 30 minutes of cooking.
  • Remove roast from oven and let rest for about 30 minutes.
  • Slice roast and layer with Green Tomato Chutney on Anadama Bread for sandwiches.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Cut of Pork: Select tenderloin for a lean and tender roast.
  • Marinate the Pork: Marinating the pork in a flavorful mixture of cider, spices, and herbs enhances its taste.
  • Sear the Pork: Searing the pork before roasting creates a delicious crust and locks in the juices.
  • Roast at a High Temperature: Initially roasting the pork at a high temperature helps develop a crispy exterior.
  • Reduce the Temperature: Lowering the temperature after the initial roasting allows the pork to cook evenly throughout.
  • Use a Meat Thermometer: Cooking the pork to the proper internal temperature ensures it's safe to eat and still moist.
  • Let the Pork Rest: Allowing the pork to rest before slicing lets the juices redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
  • Garnish and Serve: Garnish the roasted pork with fresh herbs, citrus slices, or a drizzle of sauce before serving.

Conclusion:

Cider-roasted pork tenderloin is a delightful dish that combines the tangy sweetness of apple cider with tender, flavorful pork. By following these tips, you'll create a mouthwatering roast that's perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner. Remember to choose high-quality ingredients, properly marinate and cook the pork, and let it rest before slicing to achieve the best results. Enjoy this delicious and versatile dish that's sure to impress your family and friends!
