Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Additional Time 10 minutes

Total Time 1 hour

Ingredients

1 lb pork tenderloin
1 apple, peeled and diced
1/2 cup onions, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh sage, chopped
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup chicken broth
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the pork tenderloin lengthwise to create a pocket for stuffing, being careful not to cut all the way through.
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
Add diced apple, sage, and cinnamon. Cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in breadcrumbs and chicken broth. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Stuff the pork tenderloin with the apple mixture, securing the opening with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
In an oven-safe skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the stuffed tenderloin on all sides until browned.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

You can substitute fresh breadcrumbs with panko for a lighter stuffing texture.
This dish pairs well with roasted potatoes or a green vegetable side dish like steamed asparagus or green beans.
