Ingredients for Apple Spiced Pork

  • No Yolk Noodles
  • Pork Tenderloin
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • Onions
  • Canola Oil
  • Tart Apples
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar

How to Make Apple Spiced Pork

  1. Cook 1 pound of noodles according to package directions and drain. Set aside.
  2. While noodles cook, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound ground pork, 1 cup chopped celery, and 1/2 cup chopped onion. Brown the pork, breaking it up with a spoon, until cooked through (about 8-10 minutes). Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Stir in 2 medium apples (peeled, cored, and diced), 1/2 cup raisins, 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon seasoned salt, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  4. Cook and stir for 5-7 minutes, or until apples are tender.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 1/2 cup chicken broth until smooth. Gradually whisk the cornstarch mixture into the pork mixture.
  6. Bring to a simmer, cook and stir for 2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
  7. Serve the Apple Spiced Pork over noodles.
  8. Garnish with 1/4 cup chopped walnuts before serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
