Ingredients

  • 1 lb pork tenderloin
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 apple, cut into thin wedges
  • 1 garlic clove, finely minced
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Method

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Season all sides of pork with salt and pepper.
  • Heat 1 TBS Olive Oil in a large oven proof skillet over high heat. Add tenderloin to pan and cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side to create a nice searing effect.
  • Transfer pan to oven and bake at 450 degrees for about 15-18 minutes (or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees). Remove from oven and allow to rest for 10-15 minutes. Slice across the grain in 1/2 inch slices.
  • While the tenderloin is baking, add 1 TBS Olive Oil to another large skillet and heat to medium-high. Add onions. Sprinkle with some salt and pepper. Cook until translucent (about 3-4 minutes). Add apples. Continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes or until mixture begins to caramelize. Add maple syrup. Lower heat to medium low and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
  • Serve tenderloin slices on top of a bed of the apple & onion mixture. Enjoy!
