Apple Pork Loin

• 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
• 2- 1/2 pounds Boneless Pork Loin
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Pepper
• 2 whole Small Onions, Cut Into 1/2 Inch Wide Wedges
• 2 whole Pink Lady Or Honeycrisp Apples, Peeled, Cored And Cut Into 1/2 Inch Cubes
• 2 cloves Garlic, Sliced
• 1- 1/4 cup Apple Cider
• 1/4 cups Chicken Broth
• 2 teaspoons Dried Thyme
• 2 Tablespoons Cider Vinegar
• 4 Tablespoons Cold Butter

1. First preheat the oven to 325 degrees (F) and then heat the olive oil in your Dutch oven over high heat.
2. While you are waiting for the oil to heat up, season the pork loin with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. When the oil is hot and ready, add the pork loin and brown on both sides (which takes approximately 4 minutes on each side).
4. Then remove it from the Dutch oven and place it on a baking sheet or platter.
5. Reduce the heat to medium and add the onions, apples and garlic.
6. Caramelize them for about 3 minutes until they turn a slight golden brown.
7. Then add the apple cider and chicken broth and bring it to a boil.
8. The smell of this combination reminds me of my moms homemade stuffing for Thanksgiving!
9. Its heaven!
10. Return the pork loin to the Dutch oven and nestle it in with the onions and apples.
11. Add the thyme and bring it to a simmer.
12. Cover the Dutch oven and transfer it to the oven.
13. Cook the pork loin for 40-50 minutes until the pork is cooked all the way through: NO PINK!
14. Once the pork is done cooking, remove the Dutch oven from the oven and place the pork loin back onto the platter.
15. Turn the heat up to medium-high on your stovetop and bring the apple/onion mixture to a boil to slightly reduce the mixture.
16. Add the cider vinegar, salt and pepper and then stir to combine.
17. Reduce the heat to medium-low to allow the sauce to simmer, not boil.
18. Next, add the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time while stirring until it is completely combined.
19. Remove the sauce from the heat.
20. Cut the pork loin into thin slices and spoon TONS of sauce on top of it.
