When I tried to find the recipe I remembered originally getting it from the PBS show New Scandinavian Cooking with everyone's favorite host Andreas Viestad (kind of a cutie!) I made the chicken recipe many times and it was always perfect and buttery. You have to put the dill butter under the skin of the chicken, it's SOOO good!
So back to the pork. What I made was a variation on a recipe I found here online:
http://www.angiesbigloveoffood.com/2011/09/mustard-dill-pork-tenderloin.html
The way I made it was with the butter added, like I used to do with the chicken. I baked it with some veggies, here's what you need:
- generous amount of fresh dill
- pork tenderloin
- lemon
- onion
- Adobo
- black pepper
- garlic powder
- dijon mustard, from the jar is what I used
- celery
- bok choy
- red potatoes
- BUTTER
So to get the pork ready I mixed together dijon mustard, butter and dill in a bowl. Then I put some salt, pepper and garlic powder on the meat, followed by the delicious messy buttery dill and onion slices. Set that aside and chop your veggies for the mix. Here's the pork in the marinade mode, it was awesome!
Chop up the potatoes, celery, onion and bok choy and put some Adobo on there. Then you add slices of lemon to the mix with dill. Butter on top of the veggies too! Put your pork pieces on last, over the veggies, cover and put this in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes. Then uncover it and cook it until your potatoes are soft and the meat is cooked throughly. Squeeze some more lemon over everything when you take it out of the oven.
The key is to use tons of lemon and dill and it turns out great... mmm
