Orange Braised Pork Tenderloin
- 1 boneless pork tenderloin, about 2 pounds
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, enough to coat the bottom of the pan
- 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup orange juice
- 4 medium cloves garlic, mashed and finely minced
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- cilantro for garnish
- Wash pork loin and pat dry.
- Heat oil in a large Dutch oven or deep saute pan over medium heat.
- Combine the Cajun seasoning, pepper, and flour in a plate. Roll the pork loin in the flour mixture to coat all sides. Sear on all sides in the hot oil. Add the onions and continue cooking for 1 minute.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and add the orange juice, garlic, balsamic vinegar, and brown sugar. Cover and cook for about 1 hour, or until an instant read thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers 165u0b0.
- Garnish with cilantro, if desired. Serves 4 to 6.
