Ingredients:
1 pork tenderloin (3/4 pound) |
1 dash(es) salt |
1 dash(es) pepper |
1/2 cup(s) chopped peeled tart apple |
1/4 cup(s) soft bread crumbs |
2 tablespoon(s) chopped celery |
1 tablespoon(s) chopped green onion |
1 tablespoon(s) raisins, optional |
1 tablespoon(s) chopped walnuts |
1 dash(es) ground nutmeg |
2 tablespoon(s) unsweetened apple juice, divided |
2 teaspoon(s) cornstarch |
1/8 teaspoon(s) ground cinnamon |
1/2 cup(s) unsweetened apple juice |
Directions:
1. • Cut a lengthwise slit down center of tenderloin to within 1/2 in. of bottom; open so meat lies flat. Cover with plastic wrap; flatten to 1/2-in. thickness. Remove wrap; sprinkle meat with salt and pepper.
2. • In a small bowl, combine the apple, bread crumbs, celery, onion, raisins, walnuts and nutmeg. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon apple juice; toss to coat. Spoon over pork. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting at a long side; tie with kitchen string and secure ends with toothpicks.
3. • Place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan coated with cooking spray. Drizzle with 1-1/2 teaspoons apple juice. Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 30 minutes. Brush with remaining apple juice. Bake 20-25 minutes longer or until meat juices run clear and a meat thermometer reads 160°. Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing.
4. • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine cornstarch and cinnamon. Gradually whisk in apple juice until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with pork.
