Impress with tender pork loin roasted in spiced port wine sauce and dried fruits for a spectacular Thanksgiving roast.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup port wine
  • 3 lb pork tenderloins
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 7 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 cup dried apricots
  • 1 cup dried pitted plums
  • 1 cup dried peaches
  • 1/2 cup dried tart cherries
  • 1/4 cup pine nuts
  • 1 cup pomegranate juice
  • 2 cinnamon sticks (3 inch)
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 425°F and grease a 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking spray.
  • Season pork generously with salt and pepper. Heat a generous amount of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear pork for 6 minutes until beautifully golden on both sides. Place pork in the oven with a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part.
  • Roast uncovered for 18 to 20 minutes until a thermometer registers 145°F. Then, loosely cover with foil and let rest for at least 3 minutes.
  • Next, pour the remaining 1 teaspoon of oil into the skillet with the drippings. Toss in apricots, plums, peaches, cherries, and pine nuts. Sauté over medium-high heat for 3 minutes, stirring often, until the nuts are golden. Pour in wine, juice, and add cinnamon sticks. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Mix in the broth and simmer for an additional 15 minutes until the fruit is tender. Slice the pork and serve it with the flavorful sauce.
