Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 pounds boneless pork loin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, plus more for serving
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
1 clove garlic, minced, plus 2 whole heads garlic
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 large Bosc pears, peeled, cored and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges
1 medium onion, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges
1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Sprinkle the pork all over with a good pinch of salt and pepper. Heat a large, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons oil; add the pork and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board.
  • Return the skillet to medium heat. Add the butter, thyme, parsley, rosemary and minced garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the breadcrumbs and 1 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring, until golden, about 2 minutes. Transfer the toasted breadcrumbs to a piece of wax paper or parchment.
  • Brush the pork with the mustard and roll in the toasted breadcrumbs to coat. Return the coated pork to the center of the skillet. Halve the garlic heads crosswise, then add to a large bowl with the pears, onion, remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Toss until evenly combined, then add to the skillet surrounding the pork. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers 145 degrees F, about 45 minutes. Transfer the pork and garlic to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the skillet with the roasted pears and onions over medium-low heat. Add the vinegar and cook until almost all the vinegar has been absorbed and the pears look glossy, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with more chopped parsley. Slice the pork and serve with the roasted garlic, pears and onions.

Time 1h20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 pound dried apricot halves
1/4 pound dried figs
1/3 cup golden raisins
1/2 cup apple juice
1 cup chicken broth, low sodium
4 fresh sage leaves
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 garlic cloves

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork loin is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, or 165°F (74°C) for well-done.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check the doneness of the pork loin by cutting into the center. The meat should be slightly pink but not red.
  • To make the stuffing ahead of time, simply wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days. When ready to cook, bring the stuffing to room temperature before stuffing the pork loin.
  • You can use any type of fruit that you like for the stuffing. Some popular options include apples, pears, cranberries, and raisins.
  • If you don't have time to roast the pears and onions, you can simply sauté them in a skillet over medium heat until they are softened.

Conclusion:

This spicy fruit-stuffed pork loin with roasted pears and onions is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The pork loin is juicy and flavorful, and the stuffing is a perfect complement. The roasted pears and onions add a touch of sweetness and acidity that balances out the spiciness of the pork.
