Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Pork tenderloin
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Onion powder
- 1 tsp Fresh rosemary
- 2 Yellow onion
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 1 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1 cup Cranberry sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 12 Slider buns
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 cup Mixed greens
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Rinse the pork tenderloin under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels.
Rub the pork tenderloin with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then season it with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and chopped rosemary.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork on all sides until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
Transfer the skillet with the pork tenderloin to the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) is reached.
While the pork is roasting, peel and thinly slice the onions.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and golden, about 10-15 minutes.
Stir in brown sugar and cook for an additional 2 minutes to enhance the caramelization. Remove from heat and set aside.
Remove the pork tenderloin from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing it into thin medallions.
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard to create a spread for the sliders.
To assemble the sliders, slice the slider buns in half. Spread a thin layer of the mayo-mustard mixture on the bottom halves of the buns.
Add a few mixed greens, a slice or two of pork tenderloin, a spoonful of cranberry sauce, and a generous amount of caramelized onions to each slider.
Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately. Enjoy!
