Apricot Pork With Herb Crust
I tagged this recipe to make as it sounded really yummy but I did not have any pork cutlets on hand so I made this with a pork loin which was delicious. I spread the jam over the loin and then topped it with the crumb mixture, placed it in an oven proof dish and poured the chicken stock in pan. I baked it for about 35 Min’s at 180 degrees C and it came out beautifully moist and tender. I loved the combination of the apricot jam with the crunchy topping for the pork and will look forward to trying this again with cutlets. To view original recipes please click here.

Garlic-Roasted Pork With Tarragon Sauce
This is a super simple pork recipe that is totally delicious and it is also healthy and low in carb’s too. I served ours with french fries because I knew my son would prefer that, but just serving as is with some vegetables for a lower carb version. I use greek yogurt for the sauce and like to add some garlic liquid seasoning to it for added zing. The combination of the garlic pork with the tarragon sauce is really tasty and I know for us we really enjoy it and it is also a no fuss meal to make for me.

Ingredients

500g Pork tenderloin
3 Garlic cloves, peeled and sliced
Salt and Pepper to season
Paprika
1/2 Cup plain fat-free yogurt
1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 1/2 Teaspoons dried tarragon leaves (I used 2 tablespoons of fresh my preference)
2 Teaspoons extra virgin olive oil

Method

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

2. Place pork on a baking sheet. Cut 1/2-inch slits in pork and place garlic slices in each slit I do 2 to each slit.

3. Season with salt, pepper and paprika.

4. Bake 22-24 minutes or until just barely pink in the center.

5. When pork is cooked, place on cutting board and let stand 3 minutes before thinly slicing on the diagonal.

6. Just before pork is done, combine remaining ingredients except oil in a small saucepan. Cook 2-3 minutes over medium heat or until just heated through. Do not bring mixture to a boil.

7. Remove from heat, stir in oil. ( I used some of the pan drippings for this instead for added flavour.
