This has to be one of my favorite ways to serve pork, and I thought since apples are in season right now, why not make it for dinner tonight? It's in the broiler right now...and while I still remember what I did, I will tell you how to make it.
Pork Tenderloin with Apples and Onions
1-2 pork tenderloins
1/2 tsp each of coriander, cumin, turmeric, ginger, and cloves
1/4 c salt, plus a pinch
1 tsp pepper
1/4 c brown sugar
4-5 medium to small apples, cored and sliced very thin
1 large white onion, sliced thin
2 tbsp butter
1/2 c apple juice or cider
About 2 hours before you plan to start cooking, mix together the spices, salt, pepper, and brown sugar in a large bowl. Once you have blended everything well, place pork tenderloins into the bowl and coat well with your rub mixture. Let sit in fridge for 2 hours.
Place tenderloins in a roasting pan and cover with all of the leftover rub (which will now be liquidy from the pork juices and sugar). Melt the butter in a large skillet, and then sweat your onions in the melted butter. Add a little salt and once your onions are tender, add your apples to the skillet. Add your apple juice after a bit of cooking and just cook the apples to barely tender. Dump this mixture over the top of your pork, and then broil pork for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping over halfway through.
Let the meat rest after taking it out of the oven and then slice into 1/4 inch slices. Serve with either potatoes or rice and your favorite vegetable.
