Yield Serves 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 24

Cranberry Stuffing:
1 1/2 cups sun-dried cranberries
2 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Pinch ground cloves
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon cascabel powder
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves
1(1 1/2 to 2 pound) pork tenderloin, butterflied
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, seasoned with salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Sauce:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, finley diced
1 stalk celery, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
6 cups chicken stock
1 cup apple juice concentrate, thawed
2 teaspoons chipotle puree
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
2 tablespoons cold butter
Salt

Steps:

  • Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the cranberries, remove from the heat and let rest 1 hour, drain, reserving the soaking liquid and place in the bowl of a food processor. Add the pine nuts, cinnamon, cloves, brown sugar, cascabel powder, and a few tablespoons of the soaking liquid. Pulse until coarsely chopped, remove to a bowl and stir in the cilantro. Place the tenderloin on a work surface and season on both sides with salt and pepper to taste. Spread a thin layer of the stuffing down the center, fold each side over the filling, and tie with a butcher's twine and dredge lightly in the flour. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Heat the oil in a oven proof saute pan until smoking. Saute the tenderloin on all sides until golden brown. Place in the oven and roast until almost cooked through about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and let rest 10 minutes. Slice into 1 inch pieces. Sauce: Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions, carrot and celery and cook until soft, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Add the stock, juice concentrate, chipotle puree and peppercorns, increase the heat to high and cook the sauce until reduced to 2 cups, about 15 to 20 minutes. Strain the sauce into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Whisk in the butter and season with salt and pepper to taste.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but this recipe did not turn out well for me. The pork was dry and the stuffing was bland.

This recipe was a disaster. The pork was overcooked and the stuffing was burnt.

I would not recommend this recipe. The pork was tough and the stuffing was flavorless.
