Time 4h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup honey
1 cup orange juice
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 (2 lb) boneless pork loin, end tied
1/4 cup flour
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 yellow onions, cut into 16 wedges
1 cup dried cherries
3 cups cooked rice, for serving

Steps:

  • In a gallon size Ziploc Storage Bag, combine the honey, orange juice, white wine vinegar, rosemary and cumin. Place the pork loin in the bag and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours.

  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork loin and cook on all sides until golden, about 5 minutes. Remove the loin and place in the bowl of a medium (4-quart) slow cooker (see chef's note). Add the onions to the skillet and sauté until slightly softened and golden, about 5 minutes.

Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low for 2 hours 25 minutes, or until a meat thermometer (inserted into the middle of the loin) registers 160 degrees F. (See chef's note.).
  • Remove the loin and allow to sit for 5 minutes before slicing. To serve, spoon about 1/2 cup rice onto a plate. Place a slice or two of pork loin on the rice and drizzle with the cherry and onion sauce that the pork cooked inches Sprinkle with parsley, if desired.

  • Slow cookers vary, so start checking meat for doneness after about 2 hours.
  • To prepare this dish without a slow cooker, simply follow the steps above through cooking the loin in the skillet. Next, instead of placing the loin in the slow cooker, place it in a large pot on your stovetop. Add the onions, cherries and reserved marinade from Step 2. Cover the pot with a lid and cook on medium-low for about 2 hours 15 minutes, or until a meat thermometer registers 160 degrees F. Allow the pork loin to rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  • Pair leftover pork with crusty bread for sensational sandwiches.

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

One 3 1/2- to 4-pound pork loin
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon cooking oil
2 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon soy sauce
3 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Trim the visible fat from the loin. If necessary, cut the roast to fit into a 3 1/2-, 4- or 5-quart slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, ginger, thyme and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Rub the spice mixture over the entire surface of the loin.
  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium to medium-high heat and brown the loin slowly on all sides. Drain off the fat. Transfer the loin to the slow cooker. Combine the chicken broth, lemon juice and soy sauce in a small bowl; pour over the loin. Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hours. When the roast is done, transfer the meat to a serving platter and cover to keep it warm.
  • To make the gravy, pour the juices from the slow cooker into a glass measuring cup. Skim off the fat. Measure 2 cups of liquid, adding water to the juices if necessary to make 2 cups. Transfer the juices to a saucepan, reserving 1/2 cup. Stir the cornstarch into the reserved 1/2 cup of juices until dissolved, then stir into the juices in the saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the gravy is thickened and bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes. Cook and stir 2 minutes more. Season the gravy to taste with salt and pepper. Slice the roast and serve it with the gravy.

Roast Pork Tenderloin With Dried Cherries and Rosemary image

Found this recipe the Raleigh (NC) News&Observer and I'm posting it b/c I do not want to lose it before I tried it (I'm good at throwing out the paper, forgetting I wanted to save something). Recipe from Sarah Foster of Foster's Market. Times do NOT include marinating pork in the frig.

Categories     Pork

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (1 lb) pork tenderloin
1/2 cup dried cherries
1/3 cup dry red wine
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
3/4 cup good-quality all-natural cranberry juice or 3/4 cup unfiltered apple juice
4 garlic cloves, minced
6 shallots, cut in half lengthwise
3 tablespoons fresh rosemary or 2 teaspoons dried rosemary
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Rinse the pork loin, pat dry, and place in a shallow glass or ceramic baking dish and set aside.
  • Whisk together the cherries, wine, vinegar, cranberry juice, garlic, shallots, and rosemary in a bowl. Pour this mixture over the pork, cover and refrigerate 2 to 3 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large, ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Remove the pork from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and place the pork in the heated skillet. Cook the pork on all sides, until lightly brown, about 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Pour the reserved marinade over the pork and place the skillet in the oven. Roast, basting several times, about 20 to 25 minutes or until a meat thermometer registers 150 to 155 degrees (160 degrees - about 5 minutes longer - for medium-well). The meat will be a very light pink color. (Note: The pork will continue to cook after it is removed from the oven.).
  • Remove from the baking dish and place on a grooved carving board. Cover the pork loosely with foil and let it rest 5 to 10 minutes before carving.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Slice into 1/4-inch pieces and spoon the pan juices over the pork. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose a pork loin that is about 3 pounds in weight. This will ensure that the pork cooks evenly.
  • Sear the pork loin in a hot skillet before slow cooking. This will help to brown the meat and give it a more flavorful crust.
  • Add plenty of liquid to the slow cooker. This will help to keep the pork moist and prevent it from drying out.
  • Cook the pork loin on low for 8-10 hours. This will allow the meat to become tender and fall apart easily.
  • Serve the pork loin with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Slow-cooked pork loin is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and tender pork dish that the whole family will love.
