Place the bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning now and then, until evenly browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon on paper towels. Keep the drippings in the skillet.
- 2
Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt, pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger.
- 3
Raise the heat to medium-high and brown the tenderloin in the bacon drippings on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the browned tenderloin from the skillet, place it on a plate, and keep it warm.
- 4
Lower the heat to medium. Add the onion slices to the same skillet and cook, stirring, until softened and starting to color, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- 5
Add the sliced peaches, chicken broth, orange juice concentrate, and the remaining ground ginger. Bring to a boil and return the tenderloin to the skillet. Mound the peaches on top of the meat, cover, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook until the pork is slightly pink in the center, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted in the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Arrange the pork and peaches on a serving platter.
- 7
Meanwhile, mix the fish sauce, water, and cornstarch in a small bowl, stirring until smooth. Increase the heat to medium and return the skillet contents to a boil. Add the cornstarch mixture to the liquid in the skillet and stir briskly until the sauce is bubbling and thickened, about 5 minutes.

Pour the sauce over the pork and peaches. Crumble the cooked bacon and sprinkle it over the peaches. Garnish with parsley, if you like, and serve warm.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
