Ingredients

warm apple slaw

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Pat the pork tenderloin dry with a paper towel. Season it all over liberally with salt and pepper. Season it with garlic powder and smoked paprika.
  • Heat the olive oil in a cast iron (or oven safe) skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tenderloin and seared on all sides until deeply golden brown.
  • While searing, whisk together the cider and maple syrup. Pour the mixture into the skillet and let it bubble up. Reduce it to the simmer and cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Transfer the pan to the oven and roast for 15 minutes, then take the internal temperature. I like mine to be at at least 155 degrees F.
  • Remove the pan and transfer the pork to a plate to rest. You can also pour the juice/glaze into a bowl to use it for the pork. After the pork rests for 15 to 20 minutes, you can slice it and drizzle the juice on top.
  • While the pork rests, heat that same pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil. Add in the cabbage, apples, red onion and walnuts. Toss well. Add a big pinch of salt and pepper. Stir together the vinegar, maple syrup and dijon. Add in the nutmeg. Pour it in and toss again. Cook for just a few minutes until the slaw is warmer and slightly soft but still crisp.
  • Serve the slaw immediately with the pork tenderloin. Enjoy!
