Equipment

  • 1 Large Oven Proof Skillet

Ingredients

  • 1 Pork Tenderloin Serves about 3 adults, or 2 adults and 2 small children.
  • 1 Shallot chopped
  • 2 tsp Garlic minced
  • 1 Cup Cherry Juice
  • 1/2 Cup Very Berry Jam
  • 1 tsp Balsamic Vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp Brandy
  • 1 Tbsp Rosemary

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 400°
  • Heat the pan to medium-low and melt a Tbsp of butter. Sweat the shallots for about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1-2 minutes longer.
  • Pour in the cherry juice, cherry berry jam, balsamic vinegar and brandy. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 8 minutes until reduced. Pour into a bowl and set aside. Wipe the pan clean.
  • Add 2 tbsp of oil to the pan and turn the heat up to medium-high. Sear the pork on each side (4) for 2 minutes. Pour the cherry glaze over the pork and sprinkle the rosemary over top.
  • Slide the pan into the oven and finish cooking for another 10-15 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 137°. Allow the pork to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  • While the pork is resting, strain the glaze through a sieve (optional). If the glaze appears to be too runny, simmer it for a few more minutes and at the end melt in a pad of butter to finish.
  • Suggested to serve over a sweet potato puree, drizzle of the cherry glaze and garnished with pomegranate seeds and parsley.
