Pork Tenderloin with Rosemary Biscuit Puffs
- 1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin
- Kosher salt and finely ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 stick unsalted butter
- 3 large shallots, thinly sliced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 1/4 cup cherry preserves
- All-purpose flour, for dusting
- 4 large refrigerated/canned biscuits
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Sprinkle the pork with 1 teaspoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot.
- Brown the pork on all sides, about 5 minutes total.
- Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 4 minutes.
- Stir in the broth and preserves along with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 135 degrees F, 12 to 14 minutes.
- Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes.
- Bring the skillet to a boil over high heat and reduce the sauce to a glaze, about 6 minutes.
- Flour the top and bottom of the biscuits and cut into 3/4-inch cubes (about 16 cubes per biscuit).
- Toss the cubes in flour to prevent them from sticking.
- Melt the remaining butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- When butter has fully melted, turn the heat to high.
- Add the biscuit cubes and toss in the butter to coat all sides, stirring frequently, until the dough has puffed and begins to color.
- Add the garlic and continue cooking until golden brown.
- Then add the rosemary and continue cooking until the cubes are browned and the rosemary is fragrant, 6 to 8 minutes total.
- Remove the cubes to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet and season liberally with salt.
- Slice the pork into 1-inch medallions and serve with cherry glaze and rosemary puffs.
