5 Spice Pork Tenderloin with apples and onion (low fat)

•     2 12-14 oz pork tenderloins, silver skin and excess fat removed
•     2 tsp 5-spice powder, divided
•     olive oil cooking spray (recipe calculated with 1 T oil)
•     2 apples
•     1 large red onion

For a change in flavor you could try the following instead of the 5 spice powder:

• 2 Tbsp Honey
• 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp allspice

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
2. Line baking pan with nonstick foil. Lightly spray foil with cooking spray. Sprinkle 1 tsp 5-spice powder on pork tenderloins and place in pan. Roast pork for 20-30 minutes, or until internal temperature measures 160 degrees.

1. Meanwhile, saute onion in non-stick pan sprayed with cooking spray until tender. Add 1 tsp 5-spice powder and mix. Add apple slices and saute until mixture is softened and onions are fully cooked. Be careful not to burn the onions.
