Ingredients
- 1 pork tenderloin (3/4 pound)
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 3 teaspoons butter, divided
- 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
- 1 large apple, peeled and thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons apple juice or apple brandy, divided

- 1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1/3 cup half-and-half cream

Directions
- Rub pork with thyme. In a large skillet, brown pork in 1-1/2 teaspoons butter; remove and set aside. In the same skillet, saute onion in remaining butter until tender. Stir in apple; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add 1-1/2 teaspoons apple juice or brandy; cook and stir 30 seconds longer. Transfer to a bowl.

Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°, turning pork occasionally. Remove pork and keep warm.
