Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels, then rub with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Rub the mixture all over the pork tenderloin.
Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Sear the pork tenderloin on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the pork for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
While the pork is roasting, prepare the apple chutney. In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped apples, diced onion, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and water.
Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the apples are soft and the chutney has thickened.
Remove the pork tenderloin from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve the sliced pork tenderloin with a generous spoonful of warm apple chutney on top.
