• preheat an oven to 350 degrees f (175 degrees c). grease a baking dish large enough to hold the tenderloin without folding it.
• heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and brown the lamb tenderloin on all sides. remove the browned tenderloin to the prepared baking dish. sprinkle all sides of the meat with salt, pepper, and parsley.
• cook and stir the onion and apple in the same skillet over medium heat until the onion becomes soft, about 5 minutes, and pour in the riesling . scrape all the browned flavor bits off the bottom of the skillet and stir to help dissolve them into the . bring to a boil, and pour the onion, apple, and mixture over the tenderloin.
• mix together the apple jelly and balsamic vinegar in a bowl until the mixture is smooth and without lumps. spread the jelly mixture all over the lamb.
• bake loin in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees f (63 degrees c), 30 to 45 minutes. allow the tenderloin to rest for 10 minutes before slicing, and serve each slice with a spoonful of the apple-onion mixture.
