TJs Roasted Pork Tenderloin

Pork tenderloin may be a meal that some think is out of their "cooking range," but in reality, it is such an easy dinner. This Roasted Pork Tenderloin utilizes the already seasoned TJ's Peppercorn, Garlic Boneless Pork Tenderloins found in the "meat" section of Trader Joe's. This dinner is suitable for an evening that you have a little extra time but don't want any hassle.

Start by allowing your pork tenderloin to come to room temperature. Then, get a large pan screaming hot. Add about a tablespoon of avocado oil to the bottom of the pan. Then, sear the tenderloin on all four sides. You'll want it golden-colored!

The next step depends on your cooking materials. I like to place my seared pork tenderloin in my slow cooker, although the same process can be completed in an oven-safe pan. Once you have chosen your roasting vessel, add a can of beer or TJs pineapple juice surrounding the meat. If you don't have either of these options, chicken broth or stock will also work. Cover the meat with a lid and let it cook. If you are using a slow cooker, cook on high for 1.5-2hrs depending on the size of the tenderloin. In the oven, cook the tenderloin at 400 for 25-35 minutes. You want the meat to reach 145 degrees. Once the tenderloin is finished cooking, let the meat rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.

Slice the tenderloin, plate it, and drizzle a "chutney." We like using the TJs Sweet and Savory Tomato Spread. However, if you prefer a more traditional chutney, the TJs Mango Ginger Chutney is also great. This meal looks pretty enough to serve guests, although it will allow you to socialize while cooking! I hope you try this one and enjoy it as much as we do!!
