Spice Crusted Pork Tenderloins With Banana Date Chutney Recipes

Steps:

• Chutney:.
• In a small saucepan, heat oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking; add the onions and saute', stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes, until soft.
• Add the ginger and dates and saute' for 1 minute more, stirring a couple of times; add the bananas, red pepper flakes, molasses, and lemon juice, bring to a boil and simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated (about 7-10 minutes).
• Remove from heat, stir in the mint, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Tenderloins:.
• Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
• Combine olive oil, garlic, fennel seeds, cumin seeds, and cinnamon and mix well; coat tenderloins generously with this mixture.
• Grill over a hot fire, turning once or twice, until they develop a nice brown, crusty sear on the outside (about 5 minutes); once they are well seared, move to a side of the grill where the heat is low.
• Cook, turning occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes (mine took longer, but they were on the large side for tenderloins); the meat should be light pink in the center.
• Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes; slice on the bias and serve with Banana-Date Chutney.
• Note: The chutney will keep, covered and refrigerated, for about a week.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Combine the coriander, cumin, peppercorns and garlic in a mortar and pestle (or use a heavy skillet, placing spices on cutting board); coarsely crush the spices, and season with salt. Rub the pork tenderloin with the spice mixture.
• Heat the oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat until very hot; add the tenderloin. Cook the pork, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, about 6 minutes total. Add the limes or lemon, cut-side down, to the skillet. Transfer the skillet to the oven.
• Roast the pork until just cooked through, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork registers 150 degrees F, about 15 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes; slice, squeeze the citrus juice over the pork, and serve with pan juices and a favorite side dish.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon, cumin, cayenne, and salt, to taste. Rub the mixture all over the outside of the pork. In a large saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat and brown the pork roast on all sides, just until golden. Remove the pork to a sheet tray, fat side up.
• Meanwhile, make the herb crust: In a food processor, combine the onions, garlic, ginger, cilantro, and lime zest. In the same saute pan in which the pork was browned, add the olive oil and the onion mixture and cook until softened. Stir in the bread crumbs and cook another 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt, to taste. Spread the mustard on top of the fatty layer of pork and then press the herb crust into it. Bake until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 30 minutes. Remove to a cutting board and allow to rest, covered for 5 to 10 minutes. Slice the roast, arrange on a serving platter and serve.

Steps:

• 1. PREPARE GRILL | Heat all burners on high for 15 minutes. Leave primary burner on high and turn other burner(s) off. (For charcoal grill, open bottom vent on grill. Light about 100 coals; when they are covered with fine gray ash, spread over half of grill. Set cooking grate in place and heat covered, with lid vent open completely, for 5 minutes.) Scrape and oil cooking grate.
• 2. COAT PORK | Meanwhile, pat pork dry with paper towels. Combine mustard seeds, coriander seeds, peppercorns, sugar, salt, and cornmeal on rimmed baking sheet. Place cornstarch in large bowl. Beat egg whites in second large bowl until foamy. One at a time, coat tenderloins lightly with cornstarch, dip in egg whites, and transfer to rimmed baking sheet to coat with spice mixture.
• 3. GRILL PORK | Spray tenderloins lightly with cooking spray and grill, -covered, over hot side of grill, turning occasionally, until browned all over, 6 to 8 minutes. Slide pork to cooler side of grill and continue to cook, covered, until meat registers 145 degrees, 6 to 12 minutes longer. Transfer pork to carving board, tent with foil, and let rest 5 -minutes. Slice and serve.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together chili powder, salt, ginger, thyme, and black pepper. Rub spice mix into pork tenderloins. Place meat in a baking dish, cover, and refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours.
• Preheat grill for medium heat.
• Brush oil onto grill grate, and arrange meat on grill. Cook for 30 minutes, or to desired doneness, turning to cook evenly.

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium-high heat.
• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the onion powder, garlic powder, chipotle chile powder, salt, and brown sugar. Place tenderloins in bag and shake, coating meat evenly. Refrigerate for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Lightly oil grill grate, and arrange meat on grate. Cook for 20 minutes, turning meat every 5 minutes. Remove from grill, let stand for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
