Slow Cooker Apple Sage Pork Tenderloin

I am a big fan or Pork Tenderloin and I’m always dreaming up new ways to Crock it. Apple Sage Pork Tenderloin is my new favorite tenderloin preparation!

On a recent restaurant outing I had a dish with sausage, apple and sage and it was amazing. I was reminded how much I love sage and apples together so I thought I’d combine it with pork tenderloin. (I enjoy pork tenderloin since it’s lean and tasty yet subtle enough to let the apples & sage flavor the dish.) The results were great and my husband even gave it two thumbs up!

1. Salt & Pepper the pork tenderloin
2. Heat oil in a large skillet
3. Sear the tenderloins in the skillet over medium-high heat (optional step but I feel it locks in the juices better this way)
4. Place apple and onion slices a in a 5-6 quart slow cooker.
5. Rub the tenderloins with spicy mustard and garlic,  Place on top of apples & onions in the slow cooker.
6. Pour in the chicken broth and sprinkle 1 tsp. of dried sage over top.
7. Cover & Crock on LOW for 4-5 hours or until pork has reached your desired doneness.
8. Remove pork from slow cooker and set aside.
9. Pour sauce, apples and onions in a skillet over medium-high heat to thicken. Stir in remaining sage.
10. Add 1/2 – 1 cup of white wine and reduce sauce by 1/2
11. Slice pork and serve over apple-onion sauce mix.

Happy Crocking!
