Instructions
Preheat oven to 400F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with heavy-duty foil. Warm oil in a large nonreactive skillet over medium-high heat.
Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper, add to skillet and brown on all sides, 6 to 8 minutes. Do not wipe out skillet.
Place meat on baking sheet; roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of meat reads 145F, 15 to 18 minutes.
Remove meat to a cutting board and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
Warm 1 Tbsp. butter in the same skillet over medium heat.
Add shallot and ginger; saut until softened, about 3 minutes.
Add orange juice; bring to a simmer, scraping up browned bits on bottom of skillet with a wooden spoon. Stir in thyme. Simmer until sauce has thickened and is syrupy, about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat; swirl in remaining 1 Tbsp. butter. Season with salt and pepper.
Slice pork and serve with pan sauce.
Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese
Malbec, Pinot Noir, and Sangiovese are my top picks for Pork Tenderloin. Pinot noir's light body is great for lean cuts, medium bodied sangiovese complement meaty sauces, stews, and other multi-ingredient dishes, and full-bodied tannic malbec pairs with fatty cuts and barbecue. The Vinan Alicia Las Compuertas Malbec with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 27 dollars per bottle.
