Ingredients

• 1 lb pork tenderloin
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 apple (peeled, cored, and diced)
• 0.5 cup dried apricots (chopped)
• 1 yellow onion (finely chopped)
• 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• 0.25 tsp ground cinnamon
• 0.25 tsp ground ginger

Directions

Step 1

Trim any silver skin from the pork tenderloin and slice it into 1-inch thick medallions. Lightly pound with a meat mallet to even out their thickness.

Step 2

Season the pork medallions on both sides with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork medallions and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should read 145°F). Remove the medallions and set them aside to rest.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the unsalted butter to the skillet.

Step 5

Once the butter is melted, stir in the chopped onions. Cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes until softened.

Step 6

Add the diced apple, chopped dried apricots, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and ground ginger to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Pour in the apple cider vinegar and stir well. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thickened and the fruit is tender.

Step 8

Serve the pork medallions warm with a generous spoonful of the apple apricot chutney on top. Enjoy!
