Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup cranberry juice
1/3 cup red currant jelly
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1 pork tenderloin (about 1 pound)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

QUICK SAVORY CRANBERRY GLAZED PORK LOIN ROAST



Quick Savory Cranberry Glazed Pork Loin Roast image

This simple, 1-hour roast is our favorite Christmas dish and voted most likely to be served if the President were to drop in for dinner- LOL! I love serving this entree because it causes me NO stress and everyone raves over it. While the pork is roasting, make another batch of the cranberry glaze to serve in a gravy boat alongside the sliced pork roast. For food safety, the new batch should not be prepared in same pan as the first if you have been basting directly out of the saucepan. If you basted out of another dish, you can use the same pan.

ROAST PORK TENDERLOINS WITH CRANBERRY-PORT SAUCE



Roast Pork Tenderloins with Cranberry-Port Sauce image

Categories     Fruit Juice     Garlic     Onion     Pork     Roast     Cranberry     Port     Winter     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons butter
2 cups chopped onions
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 teaspoons grated orange peel
1 1/2 teaspoons dried sage leaves
5 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 cups canned low-salt chicken broth
1 1/2 cups cranberry juice cocktail
2 cups fresh or frozen (unthawed) cranberries (about 8 ounces)
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup tawny Port
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
3 1-pound pork tenderloins, excess fat trimmed
3 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions; sauté until golden, about 8 minutes. Add garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons orange peel, sage, and 1 teaspoon thyme; stir 1 minute. Add broth and cranberry juice; simmer until mixture is reduced to 2 1/2 cups, about 8 minutes. Strain sauce into heavy medium saucepan, pressing on solids with back of spoon. Add cranberries and sugar; boil just until berries pop, about 5 minutes. Mix Port and cornstarch in small bowl to blend. Add to sauce; boil until sauce thickens, about 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Cranberry sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Mix remaining 4 1/2 teaspoons thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper in small bowl. Place pork in large baking dish. Pat dry with paper towel. Brush with 2 tablespoons oil. Rub thyme mixture over pork. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in heavy large ovenproof skillet over high heat. Add pork and cook until brown, turning frequently, about 5 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven and roast pork until instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of pork registers 150°F, about 20 minutes. Transfer pork to platter; cover to keep warm. Add cranberry sauce and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons orange peel to same skillet and bring to simmer, stirring frequently.
  • Cut pork into 1/2-inch-thick diagonal slices. Divide slices among 8 plates. Drizzle sauce over and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose a pork tenderloin that is about 1 pound in weight and 6 inches in length.
  • To make sure the pork tenderloin is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The pork tenderloin is cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork tenderloin rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful pork tenderloin.
  • If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen or dried cranberries. If using frozen cranberries, thaw them before using. If using dried cranberries, soak them in warm water for 15 minutes before using.
  • You can adjust the amount of sugar in the cranberry sauce to suit your taste. If you like a sweeter sauce, add more sugar. If you prefer a tart sauce, add less sugar.

Conclusion:

Pork tenderloin with cranberries is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The pork tenderloin is juicy and tender, and the cranberry sauce is tart and sweet. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
