Pork Tenderloin With Roasted Plums Recipes

ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH FRESH PLUM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Generously season pork tenderloin with salt and black pepper.
• Heat oil in a large, oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Cook tenderloin until browned on all sides, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer tenderloin to a plate.
• Saute onion with a pinch of salt in the same skillet until just softening, 3 to 5 minutes. Add shallots, reduce heat to medium, and cook and stir until shallots and onion are golden brown and caramelized, about 10 minutes.
• Stir thyme into onion mixture; place tenderloin over onion mixture, and set plum quarters, skin-side down, around pork tenderloin. Transfer skillet to preheated oven.
• Cook until pork is slightly pink in the center, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Transfer pork and plums to a plate.
• Place skillet over medium-high heat and pour water and balsamic vinegar into onion mixture. Bring mixture to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook and stir until liquid is reduced by half, 5 to 10 minutes; remove from heat. Whisk butter into mixture until melted and sauce is shiny. Pour sauce over pork and plums.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH HONEY PLUM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place the apples on the bottom of a 13 by 9-inch glass baking dish. Place pork tenderloin on top of apples. Pour about 1/2 cup of plum sauce over pork and apples. Cook until pork reaches an internal temperature of 125 degrees F. Pour on more sauce, about 1/2 cup, and cook until internal temperature is 135 degrees F. Remember that meat continues to cook after you remove it from the oven.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH ROASTED PLUMS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Trim the pork tenderloin of any excess fat. Use a mortar and pestle to crush the peppercorns, marjoram, rosemary and garlic powder together. Sprinkle the spices around the meat and wrap in plastic wrap. Set aside for up to 15 minutes. (If you are going to let this rest longer, place in fridge and remove 15 minutes before cooking.).
• To roast plums, place the fruit skin side to the bottom of the pan and leaves from 2 rosemary sprigs in an 8-inch-square baking dish.
• Whisk water, balsamic vinegar, 4 tablespoons sugar and peppercorns in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean; add the seeds and bean to the vinegar mixture. Pour the mixture over the plums. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons (turbinado or white) sugar.
• Roast the plums, uncovered, until tender and beginning to break down, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Once the meat has sat for 15 minutes, heat olive oil in a cast iron skillet (or another oven proof pan). Cook the meat for 5-6 minutes turning so that all sides of the tenderloin are browned. Place skillet in the oven and cook until the meat reaches 155 degrees, about 12-15 minutes. Once done, remove the pork from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes. (In that time the meat will reach the desired 160 degrees.).
• Once the plums are done roasting, discard the rosemary and the vanilla bean. Strain the roasting liquid into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook until reduced to 1/2 cup, 6 to 8 minutes. Whilst reducing the sauce tent the plums with foil over the roasting pan. (I would suggest not starting your reduction until the meat is cooked and resting.).
• After the meat has rested, carve on the diagonal into slices about 1/4 to 3/8 inch thick.
• To serve place a quarter of plums onto the plate. Place the pork on top and drizzle with the balsamic reduction. Garnish with additional rosemary if desired.
