Instructions

  1. Generously season your pork tenderloin with salt and pepper on all sides. Sprinkle the fresh thyme over it.
  2. On a skillet over medium heat, warm up 2 tablespoons of olive oil and two tablespoons of butter. Add the pork fillets and cook until golden, about 10 minutes. It needs to be a beautiful golden color all around it.
  3. Meanwhile, wash and halve your apples.
  4. Add the brandy to the middle of your skillet and cook for another 2 minutes.
  5. Add the remaining two tablespoons of butter to the skillet and place face down the cut apples. Cover and cook for another 8 to 10 minutes.
  6. Remove the lid and continue cooking until the apples are lightly caramelized. If you need to add more butter.
  7. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • The brandy evaporates as it cooks, leaving a wonderful bold flavor in the apples and pork. Cognac or Bourbon can be used instead of the Brandy.
  • Be extremely careful when placing alcohol in a skillet. I always remove the skillet from the heat source and turn it off.
  • Placing the alcohol in the middle of the pan is also a safe way of doing it.
  • Keep your eyes on the skillet pouring away from you, and keep all loose clothing away from the heat source, too.
  • When returning to the stove, start with a low flame and increase.
  • When purchasing your pork tenderloin, look for the meat that should be pinkish-red.
