Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/3 cup Louisiana bourbon, 1/2 cup fresh peach puree, 2 tbsp brown sugar, 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Simmer for 8-10 minutes until the glaze thickens and coats the back of a spoon, then remove from heat.
  2. Step 2: Rub 1.5 lbs pork tenderloin with 1 tsp salt and 2 tbsp olive oil, then sear in a hot skillet over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
  3. Step 3: Transfer the pork tenderloin to a roasting pan, brush generously with half the peach-bourbon glaze, and roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
  4. Step 4: Remove the pork from the oven, brush with the remaining glaze, and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing to serve.
