Introduction

This is a modified version of the Pork recipe featured on McCormick's Gourmet Bourbon Spice Pork seasoning. I added smoked paprika and Aleppo pepper to kick up the spiciness. If you don't have smoked paprika, decrease the amount to 1/2 tsp. You can substitute cayenne for the Aleppo pepper.

Also, I used Trop50 No Pulp OJ since it was what I had in the house.

Ingredients

    1 TBS Canola Oil
    2 Pork Tenderloins (about 2 pounds)
    1 packet McCormick's Bourbon Spice Pork seasonin
    1/3 c brown sugar
    1 tsp smoked paprika (or 1/2 tsp regular paprika)
    1/8 tsp dried Aleppo pepper (or Cayenne)
    3 medium Sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into 1" cubes
    2 Granny Smith apples, halved and cored (skins remain on)
    1/4 C Orange Juice

Tips

The directions are for a lightly coated rub on the pork with a majority of the seasoning for the potatoes and apples. If you prefer your tenderloins with a heavier coating, make sure you reserve at least 1/4 c of the spice mixture for the potatoes and apples.


Directions

Preheat over to 425F. Line shallow baking sheet with foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray.

In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, spice mix, paprika and Aleppo pepper. Set 1/3 cup side.

Rinse and pat dry the pork tenderloins. Rub lightly with oil, then rub in 1/3 c of spice mixture. This will lightly coat the tenderloins. Place on baking sheet.

In a large bowl, combine remaining spice mixture with orange juice. Add in diced potato and apple halves. Toss to coat thoroughly. Place apples cut-side down on baking dish and then arrange sweet potatoes around pork and apples.

Bake for 30-35 minutes or until potatoes are done.

Remove tenderloins from pan and allow to rest, covered, for at least 5 minutes (preferably 10). Meanwhile, toss the potatoes and apples gently in the pan juices. If the apples have "exploded", no worries! Just scrape out the apple and discard the skins, mixing the baked apple with the potatoes.

Slice tenderloin thinly and serve with potatoes and apples.
