How to Make Pork Tenderloin With Sweet Onion Rhubarb Sauce
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon coriander, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Rub the spice mixture thoroughly all over the pork tenderloin.
- Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
- Sear the pork tenderloin in the hot oil, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides (about 5-7 minutes).
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the pork until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F (63°C) (about 15-17 minutes).
- Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- While the pork rests, prepare the sauce: Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and lightly browned (about 7-8 minutes).
- Add 2 tablespoons of water to the skillet.
- Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the onions are soft (about 5-7 minutes). Add additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed, to prevent sticking or burning.
- Stir in 1 cup chopped rhubarb, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, and 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar.
- Cook, stirring frequently, until the rhubarb has softened and broken down (about 5 minutes).
- Spoon the delicious onion-rhubarb sauce generously over the sliced pork tenderloin.
- Garnish with fresh chives before serving.
