CUTLETS WITH
PEACH-CASHEW
COMPOTE
SERVES: 6–8
INGREDIENTS
2 pork tenderloins, fat trimmed
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp sea salt
1 tbsp black pepper
€‚ cup toasted unsweetened
coconut

Peach-Cashew Compote:
3 tbsp honey
½ cup apple cider vinegar
Pinch saffron
2 peaches, diced
¼ cup cashews
DIRECTIONS


  1. Make compote: In a small
    saucepan over low heat,
    combine honey, vinegar, and
    saffron and cook until mixture
    is reduced by half and slightly
    syrupy. Add peaches and
    cashews and cook for 2 min-
    utes while stirring. Remove
    from heat and let cool.

  2. Cut tenderloins into
    4cm-thick pieces. Using a
    meat mallet, pound
    tenderloins until they double
    in diameter. (The pieces
    should be about 1cm thick.)
    Drizzle pork with olive oil and
    season with salt and pepper.

  3. Heat grill to medium
    and brush with oil. Place
    tenderloins on grill and grill for
    2 minutes. Rotate tenderloins
    90 degrees and grill for
    another 2 minutes. Flip
    tenderloins and repeat.
    Remove from grill when
    meat reaches an internal
    temperature of 50°C. Let
    rest for 5 minutes.

  4. Top tenderloins with
    compote and garnish with
    toasted coconut.
