Roasted Sweet Vidalia Pork Loin Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Crush garlic with rosemary, salt and pepper, making a paste. Pierce meat with a sharp knife in several places and press the garlic paste into the openings. Rub the meat with the remaining garlic mixture and olive oil.
• Place pork loin into oven, turning and basting with pan liquids. Cook until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove roast to a platter. Heat the wine in the pan and stir to loosen browned bits of food on the bottom. Serve with pan juices.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Melt butter in large frying pan and add the sliced onions and sauté until softened, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in brown sugar, vinegar, raisins or apricots and salt and pepper to taste and cook until the onions are tender and glazed, about 3 minutes.
• Arrange the pork tenderloins in an oiled roasting pan just large enough to hold them comfortably.
• Spoon the glazed onions over the pork. Roast the pork until browned on the outside and just faintly pink in the center, about 45 minutes.
• An instant-read thermometer inserted into the pork should read 155-160°F.
• Transfer the pork tenderloins to a carving board, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let stand for 5 minutes.
• Slice and serve on warmed individual plates with the glazed onions.
