This is one that Lorijean shared with us. Home Cookin Chapter: Recipes From Thibeault's Table Pork Tenderloin En Croute ========================== Posted by LoriJean44 (My Page) on Mon, Jul 4, 05 at 20:22 Pork Tenderloin En Croute Makes 4 servings 1-1/2 teaspoons unsalted butter 1 pork tenderloin (about 1-1/2 pounds) 1 tablesoon Creole seasoning 3 tablespoons vegetable oil 1 sheet frozen puff pastry (one-half 17-1/4-ounce package, thawed) All-purpose flour, for dusting 1/4 cup Creole mustard or other spicy whole-grain mustard 1 recipe Mushroom Stuffing (recipe follows) 1 large egg, beaten with 2 teaspoons water, for egg wash 1. Preheat oven to 400 F. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and grease the center with the butter. 2. Season the pork tenderloin on all sides with the Creole seasoning. Heat the oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the tenderloin, reduce the heat to medium, and brown evenly on all sides. Then cook, turning frequently, until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 110 F., 16 - 18 minutes. Remove from the pan and let cool for 10 minutes. 3. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the pastry to a 12- x 18-inch rectangle. If necessary, turn the dough so a long side is facing you. 4. Coat the tenderloin evenly on all sides with the mustard. Pack the mushroom stuffing mixture onto the top and sides of the pork tenderloin. Place the coated meat across the bottom third of the pastry. Brush a 1/2-inch border of egg wash on the pastry around the meat. Gently lift the remaining pastry over the meat to completely enclose it, and press gently to seal the seams. With a small knife, cut away the excess pastry to make an even border. Crimp the pastry edges with a fork dipped in flour. 5. Carefully transfer the tenderloin to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the top and sides of the pastry evenly with egg wash. With a small knife, make a decorative crosshatch pattern across the top, being careful not to cut through the pastry. 6. Bake for 10 minutes, then turn the baking sheet around. Bake until golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center reads 150 F., 10 - 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Mushroom Stuffing Makes about 3 cups; 4 servings 2 tablespoons olive oil 1/4 cup minced shallots 1 tablespoon minced garlic 2 pounds mixed mushrooms, such as button, shiitake, wood ear, and chanterelle, stems trimmed (removed if using shiitakes), wiped clean and coarsley chopped 1-1/4 teaspoons salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1/2 cup dry white wine 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano 1/4 cup fine dry bread crumbs 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano 1. Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the mushrooms, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, until the mushrooms are wilted and beginning to brown, 5 - 7 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the wine, stirring to loosen any browned bits in the bottom of the pan, and cook until almost all the liquid has evaporated, 5 - 8 minutes. Remove from the heat. 2. Transfer the mushrooms to a food processor. Add the cheese, bread crumbs, parsley, basil, and oregano and process to a thick paste. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and set aside until ready to use.

Hi linnea Here's the recipe Nancy posted, & a link to the What's For Dinner thread she posted in. Despite your tenderloin being pre-marinated, the cooking method would be the same. Island Pork Tenderloin (adapted from Gourmet Cookbook) For spice rub: 2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp pepper 1 tsp cumin 1 tsp chili powder 1 tsp cinnamon 2 pork tenderloins (2 lbs total) trimmed 2 tbsp olive oil For Glaze: 3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar 2 tbsp finely chopped garlic 1 tbsp Tabasco Stir the spice rub ingredients together in a small bowl and rub all over the pork. Heat oil in ovenproof 12-inch heavy skillet over medium high heat. Brown pork, turning occasionally, about 4-5 minutes total. Remove from heat, but leave pork in skillet. Stir together brown sugar, garlic and Tabasco in a small bowl. Pat the mixture on top of the pork. Place skillet in the oven at 350. Roast until thermometer inserted diagonally into the center of each tenderloin registers 140 degrees, about 20 minutes. Let pork stand in skillet, loosely covered with foil for 10 minutes. Here is a link that might be useful: What's For Dinner

I don't grill, so I'd probably just roast the chicken with some vegetables, Ann T's high heat roasting method is custom made for a fast chicken dinner and things like sweet potatoes and parsnips roast well at that high temperature too. Toss the carcass in the crockpot the next day with some water, onion, carrot and celery and make stock. Let it simmer all day, strain out the vegetables, add some leftover chicken back in along with noodles or rice and you have soup. The pork I'd probably brine in cider, rub with herbs and roast too. That way I could stick a couple of baked sweet potatoes in the oven with the pork roast, maybe even baked apples for dessert. All quick, easy and ready in the oven! Off in another direction, the pork would be good as pulled pork in the crockpot too, with some BBQ sauce and served on bun or you could slice the tenderloin and use this recipe from Lars' niece, Amanda: Caramelized Pork Slices 1 pound pork tenderloin (we usually use pork chops) 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped 2 Tbsp packed brown sugar 1 Tbsp orange juice 1 Tbsp molasses or maple-flavored syrup 1/2 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. pepper Cut pork into 1/2 inch slices. Spray 10-inch non-stick skillet w/ cooking spray; heat over med-high heat. Cook pork and garlic in skillet 6 to 8 minutes, turning occasionally, until pork is slightly pink in center. Drain if necessary. Stir in remaining ingredients. Cook about 2 to 5 minutes, until mixture thickens and coats pork. (Amanda Maedgen) Annie

It is so good and again I couldn't print the picture. I am so sorry, because it looked mouth-watering good. I just have to learn what I'm not doing or doing wrong. jude Pork Schnitzel with Lemon Caper Butter This is a very tasty recipe that I found in our local newspaper. It had achieved the recognition of being one of the top 25 recipes that the newspaper had tested and reviewed in 2011. It's an adaptation of a recipe from the Gourmet Today cookbook. Since pork tenderloin is our favorite cut of pork, I'm always looking for new ways to serve it. This was...delicious! The salty flavor of the capers pairs so well with the breaded schnitzel. It was also a fairly easy dinner to put together and the cooking time is quick. I served it with a simple salad on the side. Enjoy! Pork Schnitzel with Lemon Caper Butter Adapted from Gourmet Today Printable Recipe Note: I cut the recipe in half and only used 1 egg Makes 4 servings 1 ½ pounds pork tenderloin, slice into 1-inch-thick rounds 6 tablespoons cup unsalted butter (divided in half) 3 tablespoons olive oil (divided) 2 tablespoons capers, rinsed and patted dry 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice Salt and freshly ground black pepper 3 eggs 1 ½ cups fine dry bread crumbs 6 tablespoons vegetable oil (about) (divided) Garnish: 1 ½ teaspoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley Lemon wedges Line 1 baking sheet with waxed paper and another baking sheet with paper toweling. Pound pork tenderloin rounds between two sheets of plastic wrap to ¼-inch thickness. Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Line a baking sheet with wax paper. In a small saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons butter. Stir in capers, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Remove from heat and cover loosely to keep warm. Pat pork rounds dry and season with salt and pepper. In a shallow bowl or pie plate, beat eggs with ¼ teaspoon salt. Put bread crumbs in another pie plate or shallow bowl. Dip pork rounds in egg mixture, one at a time, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge in bread crumbs and place on wax-paper-lined baking sheet. In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil with 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat until foam subsides. Add 2 to 3 pieces of pork, without crowding meat, and cook, turning once, until golden and just cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Transfer cooked rounds to paper-towel-lined baking sheet and keep warm in preheated oven. Cook remaining pork pieces in the same way, adding 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter for each batch. Serve pork drizzled with caper butter and sprinkled with parsley and lemon wedges on the side. o RE: Cookalong #42 ---------- PORK clip this post email this post what is this? see most clipped and recent clippings Posted by chase (My Page) on Fri, Mar 9, 12 at 15:31 FOAS, Pork Lo Mein recipe reminded me of this one.

You can brown sliced onions along with the pork if you want a lower sodium alternative but I like the flavor of the onion soup mix.

My ingredient is cheap, 19 cents a pound at the local grocery right now. It's readily available and I think terribly under utilized and I like it. So, my choice is cabbage! Cooked, raw, in cole slaw, with corned beef for St. Patrick's Day, baked, sauteed, cabbage soup, stuffed cabbage, you name it. Ready? Set? Discuss.
