An AJC 5:30 Challenge recipe (5 ingredients / 30 minutes) with 2 of my favorite foods: figs & pork-and that fennel just sounds good. Ingredients:
1 1/4 lb pork loin |
1/3 cup jam, fig |
1 tablespoon mustard, dijon (i2046) |
2 apples, granny smith sliced thinly |
1 bulb fennel (i11957) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees 2. Season the pork with salt & pepper 3. In a bowl, microwave the jam for 20 seconds or until spreadable 4. Mix with mustard and set aside 2 tablespoons 5. Rub the remaining glaze all over pork. 6. Transfer pork to a lightly oiled shallow baking pan 7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until an instand-read thermometer reaches 155 degrees. 8. Meanwhile, trim shoots and core fennel bulb; quarter and slice thinly. 9. In a large lightly oiled preferably non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, add apples and fennel and saute for 10-15 minutes or until softened 10. If food is sticking, add 1 or more tablespoons water 11. Reduce heat to low and add reserved jam mixture 12. Cook for 5 minutes, or until mixture is tender, stirring occasionally 13. Let pork rest for 3 to 5 minutes before slicing 14. Serve with apple-fennel mixture |
