Pork Tenderloin With Dried Fig And Mushroom Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Cut pork into 1-in. cubes. Combine next seven ingredients; rub over pork. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to grill. Meanwhile, make a glaze by whisking vinegar, honey, mustard and oil. Set aside., On water-soaked wooden skewers, thread pork cubes and fig halves. Grill, covered, on a greased rack over medium-high direct heat, turning occasionally, until a thermometer reads 145°, 8-10 minutes. During last half of grilling, brush cooked surfaces frequently with glaze., Let skewers stand for 5 minutes; add a tomato to each. Transfer to a serving platter and sprinkle lightly with blue cheese and basil.

Steps:

• Cut tenderloin widthwise into fourths. Slice each piece in half but do not cut all the way through; open and flatten each piece. Melt butter in a large skillet; add pork. Combine thyme, salt and pepper; sprinkle half over the meat. Cook 3-4 minutes per side. Add mushrooms and onion. Cook and stir until vegetables are almost tender and pork is no longer pink. Remove meat to a platter and keep warm. Combine milk, mustard, cornstarch and the remaining thyme mixture; stir into the vegetables. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Spoon over pork and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a skillet, brown pork in butter. Transfer meat to an ungreased shallow 1-1/2-qt. baking dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; set aside. In the pan drippings, saute the onion, mushrooms and celery until tender. Combine flour and broth until smooth; add to skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Pour over meat. Cover and bake at 325° for 1 hour or until a thermometer reads 160°-170°. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with rice or noodles if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pour flour onto a work surface. Rinse pork tenderloins, pat dry, and then dredge in flour. Shake off excess flour and season with salt and pepper; some flour may remain.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add pork to the hot oil and cook until well-browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a medium baking dish leaving any oil and drippings in the skillet.
• Add onion to the pan drippings and cook over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and saute until onion is translucent and cooked, about 5 minutes. Pour the onion-mushroom mixture over the pork.
• Whisk beer and soup mix together in a bowl until well blended. Pour beer mixture into the baking dish, making sure that it both covers and surrounds the pork, mushrooms, and onions. Cover tightly with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pork is slightly pink in the center and gravy is bubbling, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and set aside, still covered, to allow it to cook a little bit longer outside of the oven, about 10 minutes longer. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
