PORK TENDERLOIN IN PUFF PASTRY

Steps:

• In medium skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir for 4 minutes. Add apple, salt, and pepper; cook and stir until ingredients are tender. Add thyme and wine; cook and stir until liquid evaporates. Set aside. Unroll pastry and roll on lightly floured surface to a 13-1/2" square. Cut into two rectangles. Spread half of the onion mixture down the center of each rectangle and top with the tenderloin. Brush edges with the egg wash and bring together; press to seal. Place bundles seam side down on Silpat lined cookie sheet with sides. Brush with remaining egg wash. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until pastry is golden brown and meat thermometer inserted into pork reads 150 degrees F. Let stand for 10-15 minutes, then slice and serve.

PHYLLO CRUSTED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Take the pork tenderloin and cut it in half crosswise. Each piece should be about 8 ounces. Season with salt, pepper, cumin, paprika and Szechwan pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of lard in a saute pan. Sear the pork tenderloins in the hot lard, browning all sides. Place pork on a plate and let cool. In the same saute pan, saute the mushrooms, adding the remaining 1-tablespoon of lard if necessary. Cook until the mushrooms are brown and all the moisture is gone. Season with salt, pepper and Creole mustard. Let cool. Melt unsalted butter. With pastry brush, brush butter on each sheet of dough and layer the phyllo, one sheet on top of the other. Cut the buttered phyllo stack in half lengthwise. Place four tablespoons of mushroom mix on phyllo dough, spread into a layer. Turn the dough so it looks like a diamond. Place the tenderloin onto the mushroom mixture where the edges of the loin are about 1/2 inch from the edge of the phyllo. Fold the nearest corner of phyllo over the loin, and then bring up the corners on the sides of the loin, towards the center of the loin. Roll the loin away, wrapping up the whole loin. Roast in a preheated 450-degree oven for 18 to 20 minutes.

PUFFED PORK PASTRY

Steps:

• Place 3 oz. Curly's Sauceless Pulled Pork in center of each puff pastry. Lay 2 peach slices over pork.
• Top with 2 oz. Mozzarella. Fold puff pastry corner to corner, brushing beaten egg between pastry. Use a fork to crimp the edges. Brush top with the egg. Bake on cookie sheet or baking stone at 400 degrees F for 16 minutes.
• For extra flavor, toss pork with 1/2 cup barbecue sauce!

PORK TENDERLOIN EN CROUTE

Steps:

• To make the mushroom stuffing, in a large, heavy skillet melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and garlic, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the mushrooms, salt, and pepper, and cook, stirring, until the mushrooms are wilted and begin to caramelize, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the wine and cook, stirring to deglaze the pan and until the liquid has almost all evaporated and the mixture is tight, about 5 minutes. Stir in the parsley and remove from the heat. Let cool completely before using.
• Season the pork tenderloins with the Essence.
• Heat the oil in a skillet or Dutch oven large enough to hold the tenderloins over medium-high heat. Add the tenderloins and reduce the heat to medium. Sear evenly on all sides and cook, turning frequently. Remove pork from the pan and cool for 10 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease. Set aside.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pastry to a 12 by 18-inch rectangle. Place the pork tenderloins on 1/2 of the puff pastry, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Evenly coat the tenderloins on all sides with the mustard.
• Pack the cooled mushroom mixture around the pork tenderloins. Brush a 1/2-inch border of egg wash on the pastry around the meat. Gently pull the remaining pastry over the meat to completely enclose, and press gently to seal. With a small knife cut away the excess pastry to make an even border and crimp the pastry edges with a fork dipped in flour. Make a small slit in the top of the pastry for steam to vent.
• Carefully transfer the tenderloin to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the pastry evenly with egg wash. Bake for 10 minutes, then rotate the pan. Bake until golden brown and an instant read thermometer reaches 140 degrees F, an additional 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minute before serving.
• Slice the pork tenderloin and serve with the Haricots Verts.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
• Recipe from "New New Orleans Cooking", by Emeril Lagasse and Jessie Tirsch. Published by William and Morrow, 1993.
• In a saute pan, melt the butter. Add the garlic and shallots and saute until the shallots begin to soften. Add the haricot vert, lemon juice and zest and cook until crisp-tender - about 3 minutes. Add the marjoram and season, to taste, with salt and pepper.

STUFFED AND ROLLED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Remove the flap of meat at the wider end of the tenderloin and trim the last two inches off of the narrow end of the tenderloin; chop trimmings and reserve.
• Cut from one side of the tenderloin through the middle horizontally to within one-half inch of the other side. Open the two sides and spread them out like an open book. Cut a few shallow slashes in the meat. Cover the meat with plastic wrap and pound to about 1/2-inch thick. Roll up pounded tenderloin, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate to keep cold.
• Mix chopped pork trimmings, parsley, bread crumbs, currants, garlic, rosemary, egg, olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl with a fork until stuffing is well-combined.
• Unroll tenderloin on work surface. Spread stuffing over tenderloin, leaving a 2-inch border on one of the long-sides. Roll up tenderloin, ending at the 2-inch border; tie meat with twine to secure shape. Season tenderloin all over with salt and black pepper.
• Heat an oven-safe skillet over high heat until hot. Cook tenderloin in hot skillet until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Cook in the preheated oven until pork is slightly pink in the center, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Transfer to a plate and let rest for 15 minutes before removing twine and slicing.

TENDERLOIN IN PUFF PASTRY

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown steaks in oil on both sides. Place a wire rack on a baking sheet. Transfer steaks to wire rack; refrigerate for 1 hour. In the same skillet, saute mushrooms and onions in butter until tender; drain. Stir in the salt and pepper., On a lightly floured surface, roll pastry into a 13-in. square. Cut into 4 squares. Place one steak in the center of each square; top with mushroom mixture. Combine egg and water; brush over pastry., Bring up corners to center and tuck in edges; press to seal. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight., Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until pastry is golden brown and meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°).

SAVORY PUFF PASTRY WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• I seasoned with salt and pepper and quickly browned all sides of the tenderloin for a total of about 10 mins, remove and let cool.
• Melt butter over medium heat and add apples, onions and garlic. Saute until tender, about another 10 mins, remove from heat and let cool.
• Finely chop the package of herbs, add as much or as little as you prefer.
• Add to the cooling apple mixture.
• Prepare the stuffing according to the box and let cool.
• Roll out the pastry on a floured surface to the size of your tenderloin with extra room on the sides to be able to fold and tuck pastry inches ( I tried to get mine to be 'rectangular' shape but ended up with something that looked more like an ameba lol).
• Cut the tenderloin in half, lengthwise. (This is because a tenderloin is usually fatter at one end.).
• Take one part of the tenderloin and flip it so that one fat end is meeting up with a skinny end, and place in the middle of the pastry. (I left mine a little 'butterflied').
• Top the tenderloin with the stuffing followed by the apple mixture and then if so desired the cheese of your choice.
• Then just gently roll the tenderloin in the pastry, tucking in the ends while you roll.
• Brush with a beaten egg with water all over the top and sides.
• Place seam side down on a baking sheet.
• Bake at 375 for 30-40 mins, or until golden brown.
• Let cool for 10 mins and serve, ENJOY.
• Note: I used one square of puff pastry per tenderloin, I had to make 2 to feed everyone :) But the mixtures will fill both tenderloins, so there is no need to double up.
