Here’s a great recipe from Chef Nicole White – Candied Apple Pork Tenderloin with Sweet Potato Hash.
Serving for four
Pork:
Preheat your oven to 350. Rub the tenderloin with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and garlic if you desire. Place tenderloin in oven and let cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 147 degrees. This should take about 12 to 15 minutes.
Apple Topping:
-2 tbs brown sugar
– 1/8 tsp cinnamon
-1/8 tsp nutmeg
-2 tbs unsalted butter
-2 peeled and cored apples
-salt and pepper TT
Combine brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Melt butter a hot sauce pan and add the brown sugar mixture and apples. Cook until the apples are tender, not mushy.
The hot candied apples should be served glazed over the tenderloin slices on the plates.
Sweet Potato Hash
-2 large sweet potatoes (peeled and diced)
– ½ onion (chopped)
-1 red bell pepper (chopped)
– ½ green pepper (chopped)
-1/4 green onion
-2 garlic cloves (minced)
-2 tsp paprika
-2 tbs fresh parsley (chopped)
-salt and pepper TT
Cook and drain potatoes. While potatoes are cooking, in a separate saucepan with 2 tbs of oil sauté all the onions, peppers, and garlic until golden brown. This should take about 5 to 6 minutes. Place in bowl and set aside. Once potatoes are cooked and drained, place in sauce pan on medium heat with 4 tbs of oil. Stir until golden brown then add in the onion mixture and parsley.
