Pork Tenderloin With Apples and Sweet Potatoes image

I found this recipe in the 2007 Taste of Home The Busy Family Cookbook, but tweaked it for just the 2 of us!

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 large sweet potato, in 1-inch slices (peeled or not)
2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 (3/4 lb) pork tenderloin
2 large tart apples, peeled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F, then coat the inside of a 9"x9" baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a small bowl, combine salt, cinnamon, cardamom & pepper.
  • In a large bowl, place the sweet potato slices & sprinkle them with just 1/2 teaspoon of the spice mixture & just 1 1/2 teaspoons of the oil, then toss to coat.
  • Arrange the sweet potato slices in a single layer in the prepared baking pan, then bake uncovered for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut the pork tenderloin in half, then rub the remaining oil over the pork, before coating it with the remaining spice mixture.
  • Place the coated pork halves over the sweet potato slices & bake for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut each apple into 8 wedges, & when the pork has baked for 15 minutes, turn the pork over & arrange the apples around the meat.
  • Bake another 15 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 145 degrees F ~ That's my reading, but if you're a traditionalist, you'll want it to read 160 degrees F!

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less apples and more savory ingredients.

This recipe was a disappointment. The pork was dry and the apples and sweet potatoes were mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I'm not a big fan of pork, but this dish was amazing! The apples and sweet potatoes balanced out the flavor of the pork perfectly. I would highly recommend this recipe.
