Meat: 1 pork tenderloin Ingredients: 2 apples 1 onion, sliced 1 cup applesauce 4 tbsp olive oil 2 tbsp Renard veggie spices 2 tbsp Calvados (apple liqueur) 1 cup demi-glace Instructions: Marinate chicken in 2 tablespoons of olive oil with Renard veggie spices and ¼ cup applesauce, set aside. Sear pork tenderloin with remaining olive oil, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until pink inside. In the same pan, sauté onions over medium heat for 5 minutes or until translucent, add apples and compote and simmer for 1 minute. Deglaze with Calvados and flambé, add demi-glace sauce. Serve with your favorite side dishes; mashed potatoes are always a winning choice. **Optional: for the sauce, add 2 tbsp of cream for a creamier sauce. Enjoy your meal.
