Roasted Arkanian Tenderloin

Roasted Arkanian Tenderloin was a dish made from a hearty hunk of roasted tenderloin meat that had been genetically engineered by Arkanian scientists of the Colonies planet Arkania. The dish was served in a tavern on the world in which the Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs tried it during a culinary tour of the galaxy that he undertook^[1] between 34 ABY and 35 ABY.^[2]

Although he had originally come to Arkania to taste the meat of a legendary Arkanian polar drake before learning that they were a protected species, Tuggs believed that the tenderloin had flavors that made it worthy of a legend of its own.^[1] In 35 ABY,^[2] he included a recipe for it in his third cookbook, The Ultimate Cookbook, and described the dish as genetically engineered to perfection and just what was needed to warm him up on a cold night.^[1]
