Stuffed Pork Tenderloin
Need From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes approximately 1 hour. If you have apple jelly, tart apple, bread crumbs, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it. To use up the ground ginger you could follow this main course with the Ginger Cake with Crystallized Ginger Frosting as a dessert.
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the first five ingredients. Cook and stir until the jelly is melted; cover and refrigerate 4-1/2 teaspoons.
Slice each tenderloin lengthwise to within 1/2 in. of the bottom.
Place in a large resealable plastic bag.
Add remaining jelly mixture. Seal and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
Place meat in a 9-in. square baking dish; discard marinade. In a bowl, combine apple, bread crumbs, celery, pecans and reserved jelly mixture. Spoon apple mixture down the center of tenderloins; secure with toothpicks.
Drizzle with apple juice.
Cover and bake at 375° for 30 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Discard toothpicks.
Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
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. You could try La Celian Elite Malbec. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 20 dollars per bottle.
