Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 400 °F.
-
Pat pork dry and season well with salt and pepper. In a bowl, whisk mustard and olive oil together. Using your hands, rub mixture all over pork tenderloin. Let meat sit until it comes to room temperature, at least 20 to 30 minutes.
-
Place pork on a wire rack on a rimmed 36 x 18-inch baking sheet lined with foil. Place in the oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 °F and cook for another 10 minutes or until meat reaches an internal temperature of 145 °F on a meat thermometer. Remove from oven, set aside, and cover with aluminum foil.
-
In a skillet, heat butter, vinegar, and sugar over low heat until the sugar is dissolved. Then turn up the heat to medium-high, add the cabbage and apple, and cook until the cabbage has wilted somewhat, about 10 minutes. Stir in chopped parsley.
-
Remove foil from pork and slice.
-
Spread cabbage on a platter, top with pork slices, and serve.
Why this Mustard-Crusted Pork Loin With Apple–Cabbage Slaw works for PCOS
Evening meals affect overnight insulin and morning blood sugar more than most women realise. Keeping dinner protein-forward and finishing eating at least 2-3 hours before bed gives your body time to clear glucose before the overnight fast, which improves morning fasting insulin readings.
