Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 Tablespoon olive oil
Glaze
1 (12-ounce) jar Apricot Preserves
1 teaspoon granulated onion powder
1 teaspoon granulated garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons Kosher salt
4 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
Finishing

flaky sea salt, for finishing
Instructions
Season the Pork
Season the trimmed pork tenderloins generously with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Vacuum Seal and Cook Sous Vide
Vacuum seal the tenderloins with the olive oil.
Set Wolf Convection Steam Oven to Sous Vide mode set to 140°F for 1 hour.
Prepare the Apricot Glaze
While the pork is cooking, prepare the glaze.
In a small saucepan, combine all remaining glaze ingredients and cook over medium-low heat.
Stir occasionally to break up any chunks of fruit. Adjust the consistency as needed using water or vinegar.
Note: The glaze will thicken as it cools.
Preheat the Griddle
Preheat the Wolf Griddle to 400°F for 15 minutes to prepare for searing.
Remove and Dry the Pork
Remove the tenderloins from the Convection Steam Oven, cut open the vacuum bag, and place the tenderloins on a layer of paper towels.
Pat dry thoroughly to ensure a good sear.
Sear the Tenderloins
Rub avocado oil onto the tenderloins.
Place them on the preheated griddle and sear on all three sides for 60 to 90 seconds per side, turning with tongs.
Rest and Slice
Transfer the seared tenderloins to a carving board and let rest for 5 minutes.
Slice into 3/8-inch thick medallions at a slight angle.
Sprinkle with flaky sea salt to finish.
Serve
Serve with the apricot glaze and your desired sides.
