Garlic Thyme Pork Tenderloin with Creamy Cider Sauce
I am always looking for a good pork tenderloin dish and this one came out pretty good. As I was searching the internet for a pork dish that incorporated apples...this looked like a good one to try. It's always easy to come up with marinade, I mean, what type of meat is not good stuffed or smothered in garlic, anyway?! Just the name of this recipe called out to me! Garlic, Thyme and Apple Cider! PERFECT. I paired this meal with my homemade applesauce and acorn squash. As you know, applesauce and pork are like two peas in a pod... As for the squash, it just made the meal just a perfect fall dish! So Apples, Squash and Pork...a great meal any night of the week or a dinner party!
2 pork tenderloins.. brush, olive oil, thyme, garlic, salt and pepper over the pork. Cover and marinate for1-2 hours. In a pan, sear all sides of the pork before baking. Bake at 425 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
While pork is baking in a small saucepan, add 2 small diced shallots and 1 tablespoon of butter. Heat until browned. Add 1 cup of chicken broth and 1 cup of apple cider and about 1/2 tablespoon of thyme. Cook on medium heat for about 6 minutes, until sauce reduces. Add 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Simmer for another 6 minutes until the sauce thickens. Serve sauce over pork. Enjoy :) Servings: About 6
