Equipment

  • Dutch oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pork tenderloin 1.5-2.5 pounds
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • ½ Tbsp Maggi Seasoning Liquid (see note)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 Tbsp caraway seeds
  • 2 cloves garlic smashed

Instructions
 

  • Begin preheating your dutch oven on the stove over medium-high heat. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  • Season your pork tenderloin with salt and pepper.
  • Add the tenderloin to the dutch oven, and sear all sides. Sprinkle the caraway seeds on top.
  • Add the chicken broth, Maggi, and garlic to the dutch oven.
  • Cover your Dutch Oven and place in the preheated oven for 3 hours.
  • After 3 hours your tenderloin should be tender and moist, and your stock should have reduced a bit.
  • Shred or slice pork to serve. The broth serves as a tasty au jus.

Notes

  • I had never even heard of Maggi until I met my husband. It is the secret ingredient to many Polish recipes and adds an amazing savory flavor to this recipe.
  • Suggested serving. Slice cooked tenderloin and pour the reduced cooking stock over the top. Roasted vegetables on the side highly recommended.
