Herb Braised Pork Tenderloin Recipe 435

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place the tenderloins on a sheet pan and pat them dry with paper towels. Combine the rosemary, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the tenderloins all over with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sprinkle all sides with the herb mixture. If there is a thinner "tail," fold it underneath so the tenderloin is an even thickness throughout. Wrap the tenderloins completely with a single layer of prosciutto. (I place the prosciutto sideways with the ends wrapping under the tenderloins.) Tie in several places with kitchen string to hold the prosciutto and the "tail" in place.
• Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the middle of the end of the tenderloin reads 140 degrees F for medium rare and 145 degrees F for medium. Cover the tenderloins tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest at room temperature for 15 minutes. Slice diagonally in thick slices and serve warm with apple chutney.

Steps:

• Combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, 1/2 cup olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, mustard, and 2 teaspoons salt in a sturdy 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add the pork tenderloins and turn to coat with the marinade. Squeeze out the air and seal the bag. Marinate the pork in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours but preferably overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Remove the tenderloins from the marinade and discard the marinade but leave the herbs that cling to the meat. Sprinkle the tenderloins generously with salt and pepper. Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large oven-proof saute pan over medium-high heat. Sear the pork tenderloins on all sides until golden brown. Place the saute pan in the oven and roast the tenderloins for 10 to 15 minutes or until the meat registers 137 degrees F at the thickest part. Transfer the tenderloins to a platter and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Allow to rest for 10 minutes. Carve in 1/2-inch-thick diagonal slices. The thickest part of the tenderloin will be quite pink (it's just fine!) and the thinnest part will be well done. Season with salt and pepper and serve warm, or at room temperature with the juices that collect in the platter.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. In small bowl, mix garlic pepper blend, rosemary, thyme, paprika and salt.
• Brush pork tenderloins with oil. Sprinkle with seasoning mixture; rub in with fingers. In ungreased shallow roasting pan, place pork tenderloins.
• Roast 25 to 35 minutes or until pork has slight blush of pink and meat thermometer inserted in center reads 160°F. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F.
• Lightly grease 1 1/2-quart casserole.
• Cut pork into 2 x 1/2 inch strips, cutting at right angle to the grain of meat.
• Dredge meat in seasoned flour.
• Heat oil in large frying pan over medium-high heat.
• Add meat and cook until well browned.
• Remove meat to prepared casserole.
• Cook mushrooms in same frying pan, adding another tablespoon of oil if necessary.
• When browned, transfer to the casserole.
• Add chicken broth and wine to frying pan.
• Scrape up any remaining bits of meat.
• Add summer savory and onion.
• Simmer for about 2 minutes, then pour over meat and mushrooms.
• Cover and bake for about 45 minutes, or until meat is very tender.
• Serve with hot cooked rice or noodles.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place pork tenderloin, fat side up, on a rack in a roasting pan.
• Pour olive oil, chicken stock and wine over the pork tenderloin.
• Brush both sides of pork tenderloin with Dijon mustard and place on rack in roasting pan with fat side up.
• Combine the rest of the seasonings in a small bowl and sprinkle over the pork tenderloin.
• Roast pork tenderloin, uncovered, for 15 minutes, and then reduce the heat to 375 degrees, and roast for an additional 45 minutes.
• Test for doneness using an instant-read thermometer. When the internal temperature reaches 135-140 degrees, remove the roast from the oven. Allow it to sit for about 15 minutes before carving, as it continues to cook while resting.
• You can whisk a little flour into the pan juices to make a gravy.
