Fruit-Glazed Pork Over Mixed Greens Recipe




Ingredients:

4 pork tenderloins - (12 oz ea)
1 1/4 tsp salt, divided
1/2 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
5 tbsp olive oil, divided
1/3 cup no-sugar-added orange marmalade
1/3 cup no-sugar-added apricot jam
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar, plus
1 1/2 tsp balsamic vinegar
1 garlic clove, pressed
6 cup mixed greens - (5 oz)

Instructions:

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Season tenderloins with salt and pepper. In a
large skillet over medium-high, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil. Brown pork
for about 10 minutes, turning as needed. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet
and place in oven.

Roast pork for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk together
orange marmalade, apricot jam and cinnamon. Transfer 1 tablespoon of the
jam mixture to a large bowl and set aside.

Brush pork with jam mixture. Cook 5 minutes more or until just cooked
through and a meat thermometer registers 160 degrees. Transfer to a
cutting board and let pork stand for 5 minutes before cutting into 1-inch
slices on the bias.

Whisk the vinegar, garlic and the remaining oil into the reserved jam
mixture. Add greens and toss to coat. Divide greens on 6 plates and top
with pork slices and any accumulated juices.

When chickens quit quarreling over their food they often find that there is enough for all of them. I wonder if it might not be the same with the human race.
