Bacon-cider Pork with Marmalade Sweet Potatoes - Mare749 - 12-08-2006
from Weeknight Menus. Made this tonight. Very tasty! Will definately make this again. The only alteration I made was to add a spoonful of butter to the sweet potatoes right before serving, just our preference.

Trim tenderloin of fat and silverskin and cut into steaks (about 11⁄2" thick). Season with salt and pepper.
Wrap each steak with a strip of bacon and secure with a toothpick. Heat oil in a large ovenproof saute pan over medium-high and saute pork 5 minutes per side, or until browned. Tip the steaks on their edges to brown the bacon, rolling them as they brown, about 3 minutes total. Cover and finish cooking to an internal temperature of 145°, about 5 minutes. Remove pork and keep warm; pour off all but 1 T. drippings.
Saute shallots for 2 minutes in the same pan, stirring constantly. Deglaze with cider, scraping up the brown bits and simmer 2 minutes. Then add butter, swirling until melted. Return pork to pan along with any accumulated juices and season sauce with salt and pepper. Shown with Marmalade Sweet Potatoes.

OOOO---so you found Weeknight Menus!!! That was the first recipe I tried from this magazine and we liked it but didn't give it a 10 either---you're gonna love that little magazine--some delights in there.
I agree, I added butter to the potatoes too--just needed a little extra richness to offset the sweet--
LOVE BUTTER!!!
