Pork Fillet With Apple And Leek Sauce Recipes

ALLSPICE PORK CHOPS WITH LEEKS AND APPLES

Steps:

• Mix together the olive oil, allspice, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl to form a paste. Transfer the mixture to a large resealable plastic bag and add the pork chops, massaging the paste into the chops to coat. Marinate at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large saucepan. Add the apples and leeks and season with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 cup water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the leeks are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Remove 3 pork chops from the marinade and cook until lightly browned, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Remove the pork chops to a plate and cook the remaining 3 chops.
• Place each pork chop on a plate and spoon the apple-leek mixture (including any juices) on top.

PORK FILLET WITH APPLE AND LEEK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to very hot.
• Place pork, in single layer, in large baking dish, bake, uncovered, in very hot oven about 25 minutes or until pork is browned and cooked as desired. Cover; stand 5 minutes before slicing thickly.
• Meanwhile, heat half of the stock in medium frying pan, cook leek and garlic, stirring, until leek softens and browns slightly. Add sugar and vinegar; cook, stirring, about 5 minutes or until leek caramelises. Add remaining stock; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered,about 5 minutes or until liquid reduced by half. Place leek mixture in medium bowl; cover to keep warm.
• Peel, core and halve apples; cut into thick slices.
• Melt butter in same pan; cook apple and extra sugar, stirring, until apple is browned and tender.
• Boil, steam or microwave carrot, squash and asparagus, separately, until just tender; drain.
• Serve pork, topped with caramelised apple and sweet and sour leek, on top of the mixed vegetables.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Trim all silver skin from tenderloins; pat dry using paper towels. Rub 1 teaspoon vegetable oil over the surface of each tenderloin and rub with sea salt.
• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large, oven-proof skillet over medium heat until it shimmers, about 1 minute. Place tenderloins into the skillet and cook, rotating to brown all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer pork to a large plate.
• Add remaining tablespoon oil to any drippings in the skillet. Cook apples and onions in the hot oil, stirring occasionally, until onions begin to turn translucent, about 5 minutes, adding a bit more oil if skillet gets dry.
• Meanwhile, spread Dijon mustard evenly over browned tenderloins using a pastry brush. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons thyme leaves over pork. Sprinkle remaining thyme over apple mixture and add black pepper; stir gently to combine. Nestle tenderloins into the skillet with apple mixture.
• Roast, uncovered, in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the tenderloins reads at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 15 minutes.
• Remove skillet from the oven and place pork onto a plate. Cover with aluminum foil and let rest.
• Meanwhile, pour chicken stock into a saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until reduced by 1/2, 8 to 10 minutes. Add to the skillet containing apple mixture.
• Heat over medium-high heat until boiling, about 5 minutes; stir in butter until melted. Slice pork and serve over apple mixture.

APPLE & LEEK STUFFED PORK TENDERLOIN FROM EATING WELL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add leek and cook, stirring, until beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Add apple, chopped thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apple is beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a bowl to cool. Rinse out the pan.
• To butterfly the tenderloin, lay it on a large cutting board. Holding the knife blade flat and parallel to the board, make a lengthwise cut through the center of the meat, stopping short of the opposite edge so that the tenderloin remains in one piece. Open as you would a book. Cover with plastic wrap. With a meat mallet, rolling pin or heavy pan, pound the pork to an even 1/4-inch thickness.
• Spread the apple mixture in the center of the pork, leaving a 1-inch border all around. Starting at a long side, roll up the pork to enclose the filling. To keep the stuffing from falling out during roasting, fold in about 1 inch of the two short ends. Tie kitchen string firmly lengthwise around the roast to secure the two ends. Then tie it crosswise with string at 2-inch intervals. Lightly brush the roast with 1 teaspoon oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and brown the roast on all sides, about 4 minutes total. Transfer the roast to a rimmed baking sheet (set the pan aside). Place in the oven and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F, about 15 minutes. Let rest on a clean cutting board for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. Crush garlic with the flat side of a knife. Return the pan to medium-high heat. Add applejack (or apple brandy), thyme sprig and the garlic; bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Whisk cider and cornstarch and add to the pan. Return to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened and reduced by just over half (to about 3/4 cup), 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat; discard the garlic and thyme. Whisk in mustard and any juice from the baking sheet. Slice the pork and serve with the sauce.

Broil, until pork registers 145 degrees on an instant-read thermometer, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer to a plate, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest, 10 minutes (temperature will rise about 5 degrees as it sits).
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat remaining tablespoon oil over medium. Add leeks and fennel seeds; cook, stirring occaionally, until leeks are tender, about 6 minutes. Add apples, and cook, tossing, until just beginning to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in honey and vinegar, and season with salt and pepper. Thinly slice pork, and serve with apples and leeks.
