Experience a delightful combination of sweet and savory flavors with this Pork Tenderloin with Apricot Mustard recipe. This dish features a juicy pork fillet paired with a blend of strawberry jam, fresh apricots, garlic, and mustard, creating a mouth-watering meal that's perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Season the pork tenderloin with 3/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, ensuring it's evenly coated.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the 1/2 cup of strawberry jam, 3 cups of sliced apricots, 1 minced garlic clove, and 1/2 cup of mustard. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add a small amount of oil or butter if required.
- Once hot, add the pork tenderloin to the skillet and sear it on all sides until it's golden brown. This should take about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Pour the apricot-mustard sauce over the seared pork tenderloin, ensuring the pork is well coated.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).
- Once cooked, remove the pork tenderloin from the oven and let it rest for about 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute within the meat.
- Slice the pork tenderloin into medallions and serve with the apricot-mustard sauce spooned over the top. Enjoy with your favorite sides such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
Tips:
- Make sure to preheat your oven to the appropriate temperature before roasting the pork fillet to ensure even cooking.
- Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C) for a perfectly cooked, juicy tenderloin.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of mustard and strawberry jam to suit your taste preferences.
- For added flavor, consider marinating the pork fillet in the apricot mustard mixture for a few hours before cooking.
- Slice the apricots evenly to ensure they cook at the same rate as the pork fillet.
This Pork Tenderloin with Apricot Mustard dish is a perfect blend of sweet and savory flavors that will impress your family and friends. Serve it with your favorite sides for a complete meal. Enjoy the delicate balance of the fruity apricots and the tangy mustard as they complement the tender pork fillet beautifully.
