Make this fall inspired Roasted Pork and Apples for dinner one night soon. Tender pork tenderloin cooked with sweet apples and onions in a rich broth. Perfect served with mashed potatoes.
In a small bowl combine 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, brown sugar, thyme, rosemary, black pepper and salt. Stir well to combine.
Pat dry the pork with paper towels and coat with the seasoning. Set a heavy bottomed skillet over high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
