Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
salt and pepper to taste
2 pounds boneless pork loin roast
¼ cup olive oil
½ cup white wine

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Crush garlic with rosemary, salt and pepper, making a paste. Pierce meat with a sharp knife in several places and press the garlic paste into the openings. Rub the meat with the remaining garlic mixture and olive oil.
  • Place pork loin into oven, turning and basting with pan liquids. Cook until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove roast to a platter. Heat the wine in the pan and stir to loosen browned bits of food on the bottom. Serve with pan juices.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH GLAZED SWEET ONIONS



Pork Tenderloin With Glazed Sweet Onions image

Some onions become milder and gain sweetness as they cook. Although the recipe calls for Vidalia onions you can use any sweet onion in this recipe. I usually cook my tenderloin on the bbq but did this one in the oven. My DD prefers it done this way.

Time 55m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large vidalia onions or 2 large other sweet onions, sliced
2 tablespoons firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots or 1/2 cup golden raisin
salt and pepper
2 lbs pork tenderloin

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Melt butter in large frying pan and add the sliced onions and sauté until softened, about 2 minutes.
  • Stir in brown sugar, vinegar, raisins or apricots and salt and pepper to taste and cook until the onions are tender and glazed, about 3 minutes.
  • Arrange the pork tenderloins in an oiled roasting pan just large enough to hold them comfortably.
  • Spoon the glazed onions over the pork. Roast the pork until browned on the outside and just faintly pink in the center, about 45 minutes.
  • An instant-read thermometer inserted into the pork should read 155-160°F.
  • Transfer the pork tenderloins to a carving board, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let stand for 5 minutes.
  • Slice and serve on warmed individual plates with the glazed onions.
