Ingredients
Berry Salsa:
- 1-1/4 cups blackberries (fresh or thawed from frozen, about 6 ounces)
- 1-1/4 cups raspberries (fresh or thawed from frozen, about 6 ounces)
- 1 cup blueberries (fresh or thawed from frozen, about 6 ounces)
- 1 medium sweet red pepper, finely chopped
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
- 1/2 medium red onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Pork:
- 2 pork tenderloins (3/4 pound each), cut into 3/4-inch slices
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1/2 cup white wine or chicken stock
- 2 shallots, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
Directions
Make the Berry Salsa:
- In a bowl, combine the blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, sweet red pepper, and jalapeno pepper.
- Set aside 1 cup of this mixture for the sauce.
- For the salsa, gently mix the remaining berry mixture with the red onion, lime juice, cilantro, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Let it sit for 30 minutes.
Cook the Pork:
- Season the pork slices with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Cook half of the pork slices until they reach an internal temperature of 145Β°F, about 2-4 minutes on each side. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Repeat with the remaining pork and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Make the Sauce:
- In the same skillet, add the white wine (or chicken stock), shallots, and the reserved berry mixture. Stir to loosen any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Bring to a boil and cook until the liquid reduces to about 1 tablespoon, 4-6 minutes.
- Add the chicken stock and cook until the shallots are tender, about 5 minutes more, stirring occasionally.
Combine and Serve:
- Return the cooked pork to the pan with the sauce and heat through.
- Serve the pork with the berry salsa on the side.
Marinate tender pork tenderloin in a flavorful blend of spices, then grill or roast until juicy and caramelized, serving it alongside a vibrant salsa made with fresh strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries for a burst of sweet and tangy flavor - a perfect balance of savory and fruity goodness!
