Boneless Pork Roast
Stuffed With Cranberries & Pear


Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup sliced yellow onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rubbed sage
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 cup fat free, less sodium chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 cups peeled & chopped pears
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/4 cup apple juice
  • 1 2 pound boneless pork loin roast, trimmed & butterflied
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions
 
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add onion, thyme, sage and garlic. Saute for 3 minutes until onion is tender. Stir in broth, scraping the pan to loosen the browned onion bits.
  3. Cook for 5 minutes until liquid is almost evaporated. Add the pear pieces and cook for 5 minutes until pear is lightly browned stirring often.
  4. Add cranberries and apple juice and cook for 5 minutes until liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and cool down to room temperature.
  5. Unroll pork roast and sprinkle both sides with salt & pepper. Spread the pear mixture over the roast, leaving a 2 inch margin around the outside edges.
  6. Roll up the roast in a jelly roll fashion starting with the short side. Secure with twine in one inch intervals. Place roast on the rack of a broiler pan or roasting pan coated with cooking spray.
  7. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 325 degrees and cook for another 1 hour and 10 minutes or until meat thermometer registers 160 degrees, slightly pink.
  8. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing into 1 inch serving slices.
