By dmscott52

First tried 10/29/14. Very good flavor

Ingredients

• 2- 1 lb. pork tenderloins
• Salt and pepper
• 1 T. olive oil
• 1/2 cup apple juice
• 3 T. honey
• 2 tsp. fresh ginger root, grated
• 3 carrotts, cut into 1/4 inch slices
• 1 large or 2 small apples, cored and cut into 1/4 inch slices.(make sure to use a hard apple,ie granny smith or it will turn to mush)

Preparation

Step 1

Season tenderloins with salt and pepper. Warm oil in large skillet with lid over medium-high heat; add tenderloins and cook until browned on all sides, 8-10 minutes. Remove pork to a plate and set aside.

Reduce heat to medium; add apple juice, honey and ginger, scraping up browned bits on bottom of skillet. Stir in carrots and bring to a boil. Return pork to skillet, nestling it into carrots. Reduce to simmer, cover and cook 5 minutes.

Add apples, cover and cook until internal temperature of pork reads between 145 degrees (medium rare) and 160 degrees (medium) on meat thermometer and carrots and apples are tender, about 5 minutes. Remove pork from skillet and rest 3 minutes. Season carrot-apple mixture with salt to taste. Slice pork and serve with carrots, apples and pan sauce.
