Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 Pork tenderloins
1 Cooking spray
¼ cup Dijon style mustard
6 tablespoons Maple syrup, divided
1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary; chopped or
1 teaspoon Rosemary; dried
½ teaspoon Salt
¼ teaspoon Pepper
4 mediums Granny smith apples

Directions

1. Peel and core apples, cut each into 16 wedges.

2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. 3. Trim fat from pork. Place pork on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Combine mustart, 2 tablespoons syrup, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a small bowl; brush over pork. Insert meat thermometer into thickest part of one tenderloin. (I use an instant read thermometer and wait until about 20 minutes into the cooking to check temp.) Bake at 425 for 25 minutes or until thermometer registers 160 (slightly pink).

4. While pork is baking, heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add apples, and saute 5 minutes or until lightly browned.

Reduce heat to low, and add 4 tablespoons maple syrup. Simmer 10 minutes or util apples are tender, stirring occasionally. Cut port crosswise into slices; spoon cooked apples over pork.

Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 3 ounces pork and ½ cup apples).
