Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter divided
  • 1 sweet onion thinly sliced
  • 2 pound boneless pork tenderloin
  • 3 tablespoons fresh sage fried crispy
  • 3 cups fresh spinach
  • 3 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup cranberry sauce
  • 6 ounces goat cheese crumbled
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a large pan over medium-low heat, add the onions and ½ a cup of water. Once the water has evaporated, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and ½ a teaspoon of salt. Stir frequently, until carmelized, about 15 minutes.
  • Stir in the sage and transfer the onions to a bowl.
  • Add the remaining butter to the pan, along with the spinach. Cook, stirring occasionally, until it wilts. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
  • Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a roasting pan or baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray it with nonstick spray.
  • Place the pork tenderloin on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to slice it open like a book.

  • Season the inside with salt and pepper.
  • Spread cranberry sauce on the pork. Add the spinach on top of the cranberry sauce, followed by the caramelized onions. Spread the goat cheese on top of that.
  • Tightly roll up the tenderloin. Tie it evenly with kitchen twine to hold it tightly together.
  • Season the whole tenderloin with salt and pepper.
  • Place the pork on the prepared roasting pan or baking sheet. Roast for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the internal temperature reads 135-145°F, depending on your preference.
  • Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
