Serving size 4

Ingredients:1-1/4  pounds pork tenderloin, visible fat removed1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil1/4 teaspoon salt1 tablespoon salt-free curry seasoning blendOlive oil spray1/4 cup of 100 percent fruit-juice-sweetened peach chutney Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.Place the tenderloin on a large plate. Rub it evenly with the oil, then the salt and the seasoning. Cover the plate loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes.Heat a large ovenproof, nonstick skillet to medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, mist it with the olive oil spray. Cook the tenderloin for one minute per side, or until just browned on all sides.Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake the tenderloin, uncovered, for 16 to 19 minutes, or until it is just barely pink inside or a meat thermometer reaches 165 degrees F. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately place a sheet of foil loosely over the tenderloin (not over the whole pan). Let sit for 10 minutes (the internal temperature should be 170 degrees F. after it rests).Meanwhile, spoon the chutney into a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on medium power for 30 seconds or until hot. Set aside.Transfer the tenderloin to a cutting board. Holding your knife at a 45-degree angle, slice it into thin slices. Serve immediately with one tablespoon of chutney per serving.
