This pork tenderloin recipe includes apples and a tasty sauce. Pork tenderloin is lean and can become dry if overcooked, so check it for doneness (at least 145 F) and tenderness after 4 to 5 hours on low.

Ingredients

  • 2 pork tenderloins (1 1/2 to 2 pounds total)
  • Optional: salt and black pepper (coarsely ground, to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion (halved and cut into 1/4-inch slices)
  • 2 apples (peeled and coarsely chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons apple jelly
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cider vinegar

Steps to Make It

  1. Season the pork tenderloins with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.

  2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pork tenderloins and onion and cook, turning, until the pork is seared on all sides.

  3. Place the pork and onions in the slow cooker; add the chopped apples, apple jelly, soy sauce, and vinegar.

  4. Cover and cook on low for 5 to 7 hours.

  5. Slice the pork tenderloins and serve with the apples and hot cooked rice.
