Mustard Crusted Pork Loin With Apple Cabbage Slaw Recipes

MUSTARD CRUSTED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425F.
• Combine mustard, sage, and parsley along with salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• Cut pork tenderloin in half width-wise and rub mustard mixture all over the pork. (Cutting it in half will make it easier to manage while you fry it.)
• Spread breadcrumbs onto a plate and gently press the pork into the breadcrumb mixture so all sides are covered.
• Place a cooling rack on top of a cookie sheet. This is what you will roast the pork on.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add butter and oil. When the butter stops foaming add the pork tenderloin.
• Cook the pork, turning it very gently to brown it on all sides without losing too much of the coating. Transfer to the rack on the cookie sheet and into the oven.
• Bake until the pork is cooked to an internal temperature of at least 155F, this should take about 20 minutes. (The temperature will continue to increase while it rests.)
• Allow to rest for 10 minutes lightly tented with aluminum foil.
• Cut into 1 cm wide slices and serve.

DIJON PORK WITH APPLES AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place 1 rack in center position and another 4 inches from broiler. Spray a rimmed sheet pan with cooking spray.
• Toss together cabbage and apples with 3 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper on prepared sheet pan and arrange in an even layer.
• Pat pork dry and season with remaining teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Whisk together remaining 2 tablespoons oil with mustard, vinegar, honey, and thyme in a small bowl. Spread over all sides of pork and set pork on top of cabbage and apples.
• Roast on center rack until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of thickest part of each tenderloin registers 130 degrees F, about 25 minutes.
• Remove pan from oven and turn oven to broil. When broiler is hot, put pan on top rack and broil until pork has a golden-brown crust, thermometer registers 145 degrees F, and cabbage and apples have a light char, about 5 minutes. Cover pan loosely with foil and let pork rest 10 minutes before slicing. Serve pork warm with cabbage and apples, sprinkled with parsley (if using).

MUSTARD-CRUSTED PORK LOIN WITH APPLE-CABBAGE SLAW

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Pat pork dry and season well with salt and pepper. In a bowl, whisk mustard and olive oil together. Using your hands, rub mixture all over pork tenderloin. Let meat sit until it comes to room temperature, at least 20 to 30 minutes.
• Place pork on a wire rack on a rimmed 36 x 18-inch baking sheet lined with foil. Place in the oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°F and cook for another 10 minutes or until meat reaches an internal temperature of 145°F on a meat thermometer. Remove from oven, set aside, and cover with aluminum foil.
• In a skillet, heat butter, vinegar, and sugar over low heat until the sugar is dissolved. Then turn up the heat to medium-high, add the cabbage and apple, and cook until the cabbage has wilted somewhat, about 10 minutes. Stir in chopped parsley.
• Remove foil from pork and slice.
• Spread cabbage on a platter, top with pork slices, and serve.
