Roast Pork Tenderloin
Pork tenderloin is one of my favorite cuts of meat. I love it juicy on the inside with a crust on the outside. Here’s a recipe for a basic pork tenderloin.
Ingredients:
- 2 slices bacon
- 1 to 1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin
- 1/3 cup chopped onion
- 1 tablespoon butter or margarine
- 1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
- 3 tablespoons chopped sweet pickle or sweet pickle relish
- 2 tablespoon vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
- 1 teaspoon sugar
Preparation:
Arrange bacon slices over pork tenderloin. Place tenderloin on rack in a shallow roasting pan. Tuck thin end of meat under. Roast, uncovered, at 350° for about 25 to 35 minutes, or until internal temperature is around 160°.
In a saucepan over medium-low heat, melt butter. Cook chopped onion in butter until tender; add tomato sauce, sweet pickle, vinegar, parsley flakes and sugar. Simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Serve with roasted pork tenderloin. Pork tenderloin serves 4 to 6.
