Instructions
Pork Tenderloin
- Season the pork with oregano, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Sear pork on all sides to create nice color. Remove from pan with tongs and place on a rack on a sheet pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees. Remove from the oven and let rest in a warm area for at least 8 minutes before slicing.
Apple Blueberry Compote
- In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add apples and onion; cover and cook, stirring frequently, until apples are almost tender, approx. 3–4 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch, sugar, salt, and pepper; stir in 2/3 cup water. Stir water mixture and 1/2 cup of the blueberries into the apples; cook, stirring gently, until thickened and sauce begins to color, approx. 1–3 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in lemon juice and remaining 1/2 cup of blueberries.
- Serve with sliced pork.
