Apple Stuffed Pork Loin

April 12, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 17 Comments

Hi Everyone,

I’m just sitting back relaxing, drinking my decaf latte as I let me dinner settle in my belly, debating do I want to share tonight’s dinner with you?  Well that’s a silly thought because you know I do.  If it’s food related I am up for sharing!

I made for the first time ever stuffed Pork Loins.  I have made so many variety of pork chops, pork loins, pork tenderloin, but for some odd reason I never made stuffed ones.  How crazy is that?  All I can say is it’s easy and I can see why people love stuffed pork chops.  Now that I got the hang of it I can’t wait to stuff it with other goodies, but I am not sure if I will be able to top tonight’s pork loin.


See their’s one food combination that I really, really, really love and that’s apples and onions together.  My friends think it is weird, I think it’s great!  Don’t you think cooked apples and onions go together?  My friends here in California think it must be an east coast thing because they never heard of the combination and I offer them a bite and they turn their heads with that ewww look on there face.  Really?  I just don’t get it?  My family likes onions and apples, but my Husband thinks sometimes I go a little overboard with it.  I have even stuffed Turkey on Thanksgiving with it.  I love it!!  So what do you think of the combo?  I am curious to know.

Now the calories may seem a little high on this, but it’s only because I got 3 pork loins in the package, which was over a lbs. worth, I could have cut them in half, but I didn’t want to.  Sometimes you just need to eat it and enjoy it!  It’s healthy, just a lot of it and yes I ate it all up and I’m proud of it.  To make up for it, I just cut back on my dinner carbs.  🙂

Here’s a picture, just as I was getting ready to sear the pork.  I’m showing you this so you can see how I stuffed them.

To stuff them, I just took my knife and cut through the thickest part of the pork, but I was very careful not to cut all the way through. The pork was simple to cut, it took like a minute to cut all three pieces.   If you happen to over stuff your pork loin, just use a toothpick to seal it closed.

I should give you a brief description of this fabulous stuffed pork chops, it’s sweet and savory.  The onions and apples are so tender and adding the apple cider to it, gave it a wonderful slight cinnamony flavor, not to mention it really added a nice glaze to the pork.  The dish reminds me of fall meal.  The pork was very tender to, easy to cut and not chewy at all. This is one dish that will make my meal rotations.  I’m very proud of my first stuffed pork loin.  🙂

Here they are fresh out of the oven.   The pan is not going to be fun to clean.

Total time
50 mins
 
Serves: 3 - 6.6 pork loins
Ingredients
  • 20 oz Pork Loin, thick cut (3 pieces)
  • ½ Tbsp. butter (I used Brumble & Brown)
  • ½ cup (150 grams) apples, peeled, diced into bite size pieces
  • ¼ cup onion, diced small
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • ¼ tsp. pepper
  • ½ cup apple cider or juice, divided
  • 1 tsp. brown sugar
  • sprinkle of Parsley (optional)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
  2. Cut a pocket into the thickest part of the pork, be careful not to cut all the way through. Season the inside with salt & pepper, set a side
  3. In an oven proof skillet, add butter, apples, onions and salt & pepper. Cook until tender (about 5 minutes), add ¼ cup of apple cider and brown sugar. Stir until and most of the juice is evaporated.
  4. Add apple mixture into the pocket of each pork loin. If you have left over, just leave it in the skillet.
  5. Add Pork to skillet and brown on all sides.
  6. Add remaining ¼ cup apple cider and bake in oven for 30 minutes, flipping the pork half way through cooking until pork is no longer pink.
  7. For decoration I added a sprinkle of parsley over the top of my pork.

Have a lovely day my Darlings!!

    That is some serious goodness! I am not a big pork fan, but when it comes stuffed with apples… I am all over it! I usually serve my pork with microwaved ‘baked’ apple slices.
    Going to try this one on my family next week. Thanks, Jennifer!

    Looks fab, right after you pull those from the pan, deglaze. A little white wine will work good, but, even water will work if done while hot. Then, when you do get to it, it’s much easier.

    Want to try this recipe. What kind of apples did you use?

      I think on this recipe I used honeycrisp or a gala. Any semi-firm apple will do. Use your favorite. Let me know how it turns out for you.

Happy Thursday! I can’t believe it’s 4th of Ju Happy Thursday! I can’t believe it’s 4th of July weekend already! I’m not sure what our plans are, but I’m sure cooking on the bbq will be happening. It should be a nice weekend. 
🇺🇸
I thought I would share with you the little corner in my dining room that I decorated for the 4th of July. If you do not have any patriotic decor, all you have to do is add a flag to it. 
🇺🇸
Do you have any plans for this holiday weekend?

Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but we never eat our meals at the dining room table. We always eat at the kitchen counter. It’s convenient, easy to clean and it’s close to the food. Plus as a bonus, we get a nice view of the backyard.
💕
Just because you eat at the counter doesn’t mean you can’t create a pretty place setting. I like creating a place setting for my husband and I. It makes for a lovely meal and feels a little fancier.
💕
I was gifted this gorgeous flatware from @inoxartisans. This is the Chantilly Flatware 5 piece set. It’s handcrafted with 18/8 stainless steel. It has a nice weight to it, well made and it’s comfortable in your hand. The flatware is also dishwasher safe. 
💕
You can dress up the Chantilly Flatware with an elegant meal or use it for a more casual meal. If you are looking for new flatware INOX Artisans has a wide variety of styles that comes in gold, copper and silver.
💕
Do you eat at the dining room table or do you prefer the kitchen counter?

Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterd Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterday taking pictures of flowers and I felt a shadow flying around me. I looked up and there a Monarch butterfly. 
🦋
I don’t see Monarchs very much, I was delighted when I saw this orange beauty flying around. It landed on a Zinnia before it took a rest on my Butterfly Bush. Isn’t it beautiful? It made my day. It’s the small things.
🦋
I highly recommend a Butterfly Bush in your garden. The flowers come in a range of colors from white, pink to purples. They do well in zones 5-9. The flowers smell amazing and bloom all season. They are also a great butterfly attractor and fairly easy to grow.
🦋
Do you get butterflies in your garden?

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which is okay by me. Yesterday I worked on my bedroom and it feels so good having a clean bedroom. It was a chore that I needed to get done.
🐾
My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.
