Pork Tenderloin With Marmalade

Pork Tenderloin With Marmalade

Diana Rattray
Marmalade is flavored with vinegar, honey, and hot sauce, then it's simmered with pork tenderloin medallions for a tasty meal. Serve with rice and green beans, broccoli, or peas and carrots.

Ingredients:

  • 12 ounces sweet orange marmalade
  • 4 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon Asian hot garlic chili sauce or a dash or more of other hot sauce
  • Pinch salt
  • 2 pounds pork tenderloins
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Dash ground black pepper

Preparation:

Combine the marmalade, vinegar, honey, Asian chili sauce, and pinch of salt. Simmer until reduced by about 1/3, about 10 to 15 minutes.

Cut tenderloins into 1-inch slices. Flatten slightly with the heel of your hand. Combine the flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper in a food storage bag. Shake tenderloin medallions in the flour mixture until well coated.

Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Sear tenderloin medallions for about 3 minutes on each side. Add the reduced sauce, cover the skillet, and simmer for about 20 minutes.
Serves 4 to 6.

Easy and tasty!, Member mcvetic

I was looking for a sauce for my pork tenderloin that was both sweet and spicy. I had made something like this before, and this recipe sounded exactly right. I made about half the recipe and it was about the right amount for 6 1-inch chops. I think it benefited from more than a pinch of salt, maybe 3 or 4 shakes. I also grated an apple and added that in. If you like it spicy, don't be shy with the hot sauce! The secret ingredient (which I would not have though of myself) was the vinegar. The family loved it!
