Ingredients

4 sprigs thyme, plus more for garnish

2 10 ounce pork tenderloins, trimmed

salt and freshlly ground black pepper

1 tbsp. olive oil

1 tbsp. unsalted butter

3 tart cooking apples, cut in half horizontally

1/2 cup apple cider

2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar

Directions

Heat oven to 400ºF. Lay a thyme sprig on either side of the pork tenderloin. Fold up tail end, using kitchen twine to truss every inch. Season with salt and pepper.

Heat olive oil and butter in an ovenproof skillet over high heat. Sear pork until brown, about 2 minutes per side. At the same time, brown apples, cut side down. Turn apples over; transfer skillet to oven, and roast until the internal temperature of the meat, when taken with a meat thermometer, is 145ºF for medium and 150ºF for medium well, about 10 minutes.

Remove meat to a cutting board, and let rest 10 minutes; reserve apples in a bowl. Return skillet to stovetop; deglaze skillet with apple cider, and reduce by half, about 2 minutes. Stir in vinegar; reduce 1 minute longer.

Remove kitchen twine from tenderloins, and slice into 3/8 inch medallions. Arrange medallions on platter and surround with apple halves. Pour sauce over all. Garnish with thyme sprigs
