Pork Tenderloins with Apple Onion Marmalade

Tender slices of pork served with a homemade apple and onion marmalade laced with perfect seasonings and flavor.

Ingredients:

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1 teaspoon apple pie spice (or 1/4 teaspoon each cinnamon, ginger, allspice and nutmeg)
• 2 lbs pork tenderloin
• 1 onion, quartered and sliced thin
• 2 tart apples, peeled, cored and sliced thin
• 1/3 cup raisins or currants
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon rosemary
• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 4 tablespoons apple cider

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large skillet, heat olive oil on medium-high heat. Season roast with salt, pepper and apple pie seasoning. Sear roast on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and place in a roasting pan. Turn heat to medium-low. Add onion, apples, raisins, garlic, brown sugar, rosemary and vinegar to skillet. Saute stirring occasionally, until onions are soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in mustard and apple cider and simmer for two more minutes. Spread mixture over roast and place in oven. Bake for 15 minutes or until thickest part of tenderloins measure 160 degrees on a meat thermometer. Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes. Slice and spoon onion mixture over each serving. Garnish with rosemary sprig, if desired.
