Tips:
- To ensure your pork tenderloin is cooked evenly, slice it into medallions before searing. This will also help the flavors penetrate the meat more easily.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the pork tenderloin. This will cause the meat to steam rather than sear, resulting in a less flavorful dish.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork tenderloin is cooked to your desired doneness. For medium-rare, cook the meat to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. For medium, cook it to 160 degrees Fahrenheit. And for well-done, cook it to 170 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the pork tenderloin rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
Conclusion:
Pork tenderloin alla Napoletana is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal.
