Teriyaki, Dijon Pork Tenderloin W/ Mushrooms/Onion/Baked Apple
- 4 fresh pork tenderloin
- 13 cup water
- 3 -4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 cooking apple
- 1 medium size cooking onion, sliced
- 8 medium size fresh mushrooms
- 2 garlic cloves, peeled, crushed and chopped fine
- 2 tablespoons rubbed sage
- 13 cup liquid honey
- 13 cup teriyaki sauce
- 14 cup smooth Dijon mustard
- 15 -20 cherry tomatoes (to garnish)
- 2 -3 sprigs fresh herbs (to garnish, eg, parsley, sage, rosemary)
- Oven 350F.
- Peel, core and rough chop the apple.
- In a small, covered sauce pan add 1/3 C water and chopped apple.
- Over medium/low heat, cook into unsweetened apple sauce.
- If the apple sauce is a bit lumpy, that's OK; it will cook down during the roasting process.
- Mix well, then set aside for later use.
- Clean and quarter mushrooms.
- Add about 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil to a saute pan deep enough to hold all the mushrooms, with stems, and sliced onion.
- Over medium heat, clarify onion; add mushrooms and garlic; cover the pan, and allow to saute, for about 5 minutes.
- Add rubbed sage to mushroom/onion mixture and combine well.
- Remove from heat.
- In a mixing bowl, place honey, teriyaki sauce, Dijon mustard; add unsweetened apple sauce (which you had set aside).
- Add mushrooms and onion to honey mixture and mix well.
- Add additional olive oil to same frying pan and brown pork tenderloin on all sides.
- Arrange pork tenderloin in oval, roasting pan with a cover.
- Roasting pan should comfortably accommodate all 4 tenderloins.
- Pour prepared mushroom/onion mixture over tenderloins in roasting pan.
- Cover and bake one hour.
- When done, remove tenderloin from roasting pan to warmed serving platter.
- Cover with foil and allow to sit for about 10 minutes.
- Return roasting pan to low heat on stove top, to keep the sauce hot.
- Carve each tenderloin in half.
- You will have 8 tenderloin pieces, 6 to 8 oz.
- each.
- Arrange on warmed serving platter and spoon mushroom/onion sauce over the meat.
- Arrange cherry tomatoes around the serving platter; garnish with sprigs of fresh herbs.
- Serve with rice, orzo, potatoes, and vegetables of your choosing; additional sauce in a gravy boat would not go amiss.
