SPICED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH SAUTEED APPLES



Spiced Pork Tenderloin With Sauteed Apples image

This recipe is from the Cooking Light October 2010 magazine, and is very tasty! I did make some changes, as I rarely make a recipe exactly as it is listed. The changes I made, where using cardamom rather than nutmeg (as I don't like nutmeg), using about increasing all the amounts on the spices slightly for extra flavor, using sage rather than thyme (as I didn't have thyme), and using white wine rather than cider. My husband's only complaint was that there wasn't enough of the sauce!

  • Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels before seasoning it. This will help the spices adhere to the meat.
  • Use a variety of spices to flavor the pork tenderloin. This will give it a complex and delicious flavor.
  • Sear the pork tenderloin in a hot skillet before roasting it. This will help to create a crispy crust and seal in the juices.

  • Let the pork tenderloin rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.
