Recipe(tried): Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin, Butternut Squash Ravioli with Basil Cream Sauce, Saute
MenusComing back from delightfully cool Georgia, a surprise awaited me in Florida...a cold front! Today we awoke to 42 degree temperaqture and it is delicious! And, it will be like that all week long. So, a Fall dinner is in the works. I will be serving Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin with Sauteed Spinach and Butternut Squash Ravioli with a Basil Cream Sauce.
The teriyaki sauce is homemade and goes great with the pork and the ease of buying Rosetto brand Butternut Squash Ravioli affords me time to make the Basil Cream sauce that goes with it. Savory homemade Garlic Herb Corn Muffins will round out the meal.
Keep Warm!
TERIYAKI PORK TENDERLOIN
source: The Food You Crave by Ellie Krieger
Makes 4 servings
1/2 cup Teriyaki Sauce (recipe follows)
1 1 1/4 lb. pork tenderloin, trim off any visible fat and silverskin.
Put the teriyaki sauce and pork in a sealable plastic bag. Seal the bag and marinate the prok in the fridge, turning once, for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
Preheat the broiler.
Remove the pork from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place the prok on a roasting pan.
Broil until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork reads 155. This takes about 15 minutes, turning once. Let it rest 10 minutes before slicing.

2 Tbsp. firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 Tbsp. dry sherry
