Ingredients

▢ 2 (1-pound) pork tenderloins
▢ 1 cup jarred peach preserves
▢ 1 inch fresh ginger root (peeled and grated)
▢ 3 teaspoons minced garlic
▢ 1 tablespoon lemon juice
▢ ¼ cup soy sauce
▢ 3 peaches, divided (peeled, pitted, and cut into ¾" pieces)
▢ 1 tablespoon corn starch

Instructions

In a small bowl mix together peach jam, soy sauce, lemon juice, ginger, and garlic.
Place tenderloins in a gallon sized plastic bag and pour sauce over the top. Refrigerate up to 2 hours.
Place pork and sauce contents into the bottom of the crock pot. Top with 2 of the chopped fresh peaches.
Cover and cook on low 1 to 2 hours or until the pork reaches 145℉ in it's center. Remove the pork and tent with foil, let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of cold water. Transfer the pot juices to a saucepan. Add the cornstarch mixture and stir. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stir frequently until the mixture is thickened.
Serve pork sliced. Top with the ginger peach sauce and the remaining fresh peaches.

VARIATIONS: Use plum preserves and fresh plums in place of the peaches. Reduced sugar peach jam may be used.
TIPS:
- Additional peach preserves, fresh peach slices, or lemon juice can be added after cooking to brighten up the sauce.
- It is not a typo, this pork can be done in as fast as 1 hour. Make sure to only cook until the internal temperature of the pork is 145 F.
- If the peach preserves are too sweet (every brand has a varying amount of sugar) add more lemon juice or fresh peaches. Adjust salt level with more soy sauce or regular salt.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Slice pork before serving. Serve over rice and topped with the thickened pot juices. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Pairs well with a simple tossed green salad, green beans, or peas.
