Mustard Rubbed Pork Tenderloin With Brussels Sprout Ragout Recipes

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH FLAGEOLET RAGOUT AND FRIZZLED BRUSSELS SPROUT LEAVES

Steps:

• To make the brine: Add the salt, sugar, onion, garlic, thyme, rosemary, fennel seeds, coriander seeds and 1 1/2 quarts of cold water to a large container and stir to combine. Submerge the pork in the brine and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Remove the pork from the brine and pat dry. Season with salt, pepper and the fennel pollen. Wrap in the prosciutto and caul fat.
• Heat a large saute pan on medium-high heat and add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan. When the oil is close to its smoking point, sear the pork on all sides until golden brown. Transfer the pork to a sheet pan and reserve the saute pan and drippings. Roast until medium doneness and the internal temperature reaches 150 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Allow to rest.
• Discard the excess fat in the saute pan used to sear the pork. Add the vinegar and reduce until nearly dry. Add 1 cup of the chicken stock and reduce to half. Add the remaining cup of chicken stock and reduce until about 1/3 cup remains. Remove from the heat and swirl in the butter. Season to taste.
• Slice the pork on the bias and serve over the Flageolet Ragout and Frizzled Brussels Sprouts Leaves. Drizzle with some of the pan sauce.
• Combine the flageolets and chicken stock in a medium saucepan. Season with salt and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until tender, about 30 minutes. Set aside.
• Add a drizzle of oil and the sausage to a large pan over medium-high heat. Brown the meat, breaking it up as it cooks. Remove from the pan and set aside. To the same pan add the fennel, onion, garlic and red pepper flakes. Deglaze with the wine and cook until the fennel and onions begin to caramelize. Return the cooked sausage to the pan and add the flageolets and ramp seeds. Heat through, adding more chicken stock if necessary to keep everything moist. Season to taste. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil to finish.
• Heat a large saute pan over medium heat and add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Add the garlic and cook until aromatic and slightly golden. Add the Brussels sprouts, season with salt and saute until slightly charred but not too soft. Remove from the heat, add the anise hyssop and toss to combine.

MUSTARD-GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Pat the tenderloins dry with paper towels.
• Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl and stir. Add pork tenderloins and turn to coat well with marinade. Marinate for 15 minutes or as long as overnight.
• Heat a large cast iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat until smoking. (Alternately, heat a charcoal or gas grill to high; bank coals or turn off burner on one side.) Season tenderloins with salt and pepper. Brush pan with olive oil and add tenderloins; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, turning tenderloins every 3 to 4 minutes, until deeply caramelized on all sides and until desired internal temperature, about 20 to 25 minutes. (You can also broil the tenderloins in the oven - about 10 minutes on one side, then turn and cook about 5 minutes on the other.)
• Remove and lightly tent with foil; let rest about 10 minutes before cutting into 1/4- to 1/2-inch slices.

MUSTARD-CRUSTED PORK TENDERLOINS

Steps:

• Set oven to 400 degrees.
• Sprinkle the tenderloins generously with salt and pepper.
• Using a spatula spread the mustard all over the tenderloins.
• In a shallow bowl or plate mix the lightly toasted breadcrumbs with fresh garlic (or garlic powder) and rosemary, then dredge the meat in the breadcrumb mixture to coat all over (shake off any excess breadcrumbs).
• Prepare a baking sheet, and generously coat with cooking spray.
• Place the tenderloins on the baking sheet then spray the tops and sides of meat with cooking spray.
• Roast uncovered for about 25 minutes or until golden brown (if using a thermometer it should read 155 degreesF, they will continue to cook slightly after removing from the oven).
• Transfer the tenderloins to a platter and let rest for 5 minutes.
• Slice the pork and serve.

MUSTARD-RUBBED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH BRUSSELS SPROUT RAGOUT

Steps:

• 1. In a medium pot fitted with a steamer, steam brussels sprouts 8 minutes. 2. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon each salt and black pepper on pork and then spread with mustard. In a 12-inch skillet, warm 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat; add pork and cook 7 minutes. Turn and cook 6 minutes more; remove from pan and slice. Add wine and chicken broth to pan and stir, scraping up brown bits; set aside and keep warm. 3. Warm remaining olive oil in a small saute pan over medium-high heat. Add pancetta or bacon and saute until brown, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add onion; cook until translucent, 5 minutes. Add cherries, sage, and brussels sprouts; cook 3 minutes more. Season with remaining salt and black pepper. 4. On a platter, arrange pork and vegetables; drizzle with sauce. Serve.
