Pork Tenderloin With Garlic Orange Vinaigrette And Sauteed Spinach Recipes

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH GARLIC-ORANGE VINAIGRETTE AND SAUTEED SPINACH

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium; season pork with salt and pepper. Add pork to skillet, and cook, turning occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part registers 145 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes (reduce heat if pork browns too quickly). Transfer pork to a plate, and cover loosely with aluminum foil; let rest 5 to 10 minutes (reserve skillet).
• Meanwhile, in a blender, combine orange juice, mustard, honey, garlic, and 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper, and blend until smooth; set vinaigrette aside.
• In reserved skillet (if bottom of skillet is blackened, use a new one), heat remaining tablespoon oil over high. Add as much spinach as will fit; toss until wilted, adding more spinach as there is room, 3 to 5 minutes total. Drain off excess liquid, and season spinach with salt and pepper. Slice pork and drizzle with vinaigrette; serve with spinach.

PAN-SEARED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH ROSEMARY BALSAMIC AND ORANGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Mix 3 tablespoons olive oil, freshly ground black pepper, salt, orange zest, and minced rosemary in a small bowl. Rub the oil mixture all over the trimmed pork tenderloins and place them in a large baking dish. Cover and let the pork marinate 20 minutes.
• Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and sear, cooking until browned on all sides. Remove the pork tenderloins from the skillet and place into an oven-safe dish; cover. Roast the pork until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat reads about 145 degrees F, about 15 minutes.
• For the pan sauce: Pour off the majority of the cooking fat leaving any browned bits in the pan. Heat the pan over medium-high heat and add the shallot and the wine. Continue cooking until most of the wine has cooked off, scraping the browned bits off the bottom of the pan.
• Add the broth and continue cooking until the sauce has reduced by half. Remove from the heat. Stir in the butter, one piece at a time, until fully incorporated.
• Stir in the balsamic vinegar, rosemary, orange zest, salt, and pepper, to taste. Let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Drizzle the pork with the balsamic pan sauce.
• After searing the pork tenderloins, pour off the majority of the cooking fat leaving any browned bits. Heat the pan over medium-high heat and add the shallots and wine. Continue cooking until most of the wine has cooked off, scraping the bits off the bottom of the pan.
• Add the broth or stock and continue cooking until the sauce has reduced by half. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until fully incorporated.
• Add the vinegar, fresh herbs, salt, and pepper, to taste. Spoon the sauce over the pork or meat and serve.

Grill over direct heat until golden brown, 5 minutes per side, then move to the cooler part of the grill; cover and cook 8 more minutes, or until the meat reaches 145 for medium doneness. Let rest 5 minutes. To make the salad, toss 2 segmented oranges, 1/2 thinly sliced red onion, 1/4 cup parsley, 2 tablespoons each olive oil and sherry vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste.

• Preheat oven to 425°F Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
• In a hot non-stick grill pan or skillet sprayed with vegetable spray, sear the tenderloin for about 2 minutes per side or just until browned. Place in the prepared baking pan.

Steps:

• Make the orange marinade by whisking together the orange juice, soy sauce, rosemary, and garlic. Pour over pork tenderloin and marinate for at least one hour, preferably overnight.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Drain pork, reserving the marinade, and place on a baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Roast for about 20 minutes until internal temperature has reached 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Meanwhile, strain the reserved marinade and bring it to a simmer in a small saucepan. Serve this as a sauce for the meat.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH ORANGE

Steps:

• Trim each tenderloin to remove excess fat. Cut each tenderloin into 4 equal rounds.
• With a mallet or meat pounder, pound each pork round to about 1/4 inch thick. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• In a skillet large enough to hold the pieces of pork in one layer, heat the oil over medium high heat. Saute pork for about 2 minutes on each side. Do not overcook. Remove from the pan and keep warm on a platter.
• In the same skillet, add the onions and cook until wilted. Drain the fat and add the port and wine. Bring to a boil. Stir and scrape to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the bottom of the pan. Add the chicken broth and the tomato paste. Stir to blend; reduce by half.
• Add the orange sections and zests, bring to a simmer and swirl in the butter. Add any juices that may have accumulated around the pork slices. Blend well. Pour the sauce over the pork and serve hot.

ORANGE-GLAZED, PORK TENDERLOIN WITH ITALIAN SEASONING

Steps:

• Dissolve salt and sugar in 1 quart of water in a bowl. Add meat and let stand 45 minutes. Rinse, then pat dry.
• Meanwhile, in a small pan, reduce orange concentrate by half over low heat. Stir in garlic and Italian seasoning. Brush pork with glaze and set aside.
• Either build a charcoal fire in half the grill or turn gas grill burners on high for 10 minutes. Lubricate hot grill rack with an oil-soaked rag using tongs.
• Place tenderloins on hot grill rack and close lid; grill until well-seared, about 7 minutes. Turn meat and close lid; grill until well-seared on second side, about 6 minutes longer. Turn off gas grill (or move meat to the charcoal grill's cooler side) and let tenderloins sit in covered until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees (63 degrees C) on a meat thermometer, about 5 minutes longer.

SAUTEED PORK TENDERLOIN MEDALLIONS WITH LEMON-GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut pork into 12 slices, about 1-inch thick. Sprinkle pork on all sides with 1/8 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning once, until the pork is well browned and internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Transfer pork to serving platter and cover to keep warm.
• Add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil to skillet. Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the wine and broth. Increase heat to high and cook, stirring to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet, until the liquid is reduced by two thirds, about 5 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt, remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper, the lemon zest and juice, and the parsley. Serve the pork medallions drizzled with the sauce (makes a generous 1/3 cup; about 1 1/2 tablespoons per serving).
