Who doesn't love a good pork tenderloin. The nice thing is they are just the perfect size for a family of four and if you a watch your local supermarket you can pick them up on sale, or even better I always buy them dirt cheap when they are close-coded. I will buy 3-4 at a time and just throw them in the feezer.
Ingredients:
2 Pork Tenderloins (usually each package has two tenderloins)
3 TB Olive Oil
6 TB Fresh Minced Rosemary
6 Cloves of Garlic Minced
1 tsp salt
Fresh Ground Pepper to Taste
1 C Apple Jelly
3 tsp Lemon Juice
2 Cloves of Garlic Pressed
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400F
2. Brush pork with 1 TB of oil, sprinkle with rosemary, minced garlic, salt, pepper. Heat remaining oil in a large oven proof skillet on medium-high heat. Add pork and brown on all sides.
3. Transfer pan to oven and roast until internal temp reaches 150F. Usually 15-20 minutes.
4. While pork roasts, combine jelly, lemon juice, and pressed garlic.
5. Remove pan from oven and brush jelly mixture on top. Let rest 8 minutes. Slice crosswise in 1/4 inch slices and drizzle sauce on top.
This is a nice quick meal that doesn't take long to make. I like to pair it up with steamed vegetables and homemade garlic mashed potatos (which is actually more work than the main course.)
