Recipe(tried): Pork Tenderloin with Balsamic Cranbery Sauce

Hi Brenda, Here is a recipe that is more "wintery" than "summery" but it is very good. Maybe someone else will provide a recipe that is more "summery."

This is wonderful and very easy to put together. I served it with Hubbard Squash Puree that I had in the freezer, steamed green beans with the suggested orange zest, and corn bread. The suggested roasted squash would be wonderful as well. Be sure to remove the silver skin from the tenderloin before proceeding with the recipe.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH BALSAMIC-CRANBERRY SAUCE
To round out this menu, serve roasted squash, corn muffins and boiled green beans with orange zest. End with vanilla ice cream topped with warm chestnuts in syrup.

1 1/2 tablespoons butter
1 8- to 10-ounce pork tenderloin
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary (I used 1
tsp. dried rosemary.)
1/2 cup canned low-salt chicken broth
1/3 cup canned whole berry cranberry sauce
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Preheat oven to 450?F. Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in heavy large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. Sear pork on all sides, about 2 minutes. Place skillet with pork in oven. Roast pork until thermometer inserted into center registers 155?F, about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and rosemary; saut ntil onion softens, about 3 minutes. Add broth, cranberry sauce and vinegar and whisk until cranberry sauce melts, about 2 minutes.

Transfer pork to work surface. Scrape any juices from large skillet into cranberry mixture. Boil until sauce has reduced enough to coat spoon thickly, about 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Slice pork and serve with sauce.

Serves 2, can be doubled.
