Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Wild Berry Port Sauce

Matt Dunigan Road Grill

Ingredients

Wild Berry Port Sauce

2 cups ruby port

2 sprigs fresh thyme

1 shallot sliced thin

2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh peeled ginger

Zest of 1 large orange

2 cups mixed berries (strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, blackberry etc.) whatever is market fresh

Salt and pepper to taste

Pork Tenderloin

2 whole Pork tenderloins trimmed and silver skin remove

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons fresh rosemary chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Wild Berry Port Sauce

To prepare the sauce, combine the port, thyme, shallot, ginger and orange zest in a medium sized saucepan.

Set the pan over medium heat bring to a boil then reduce to low heat and simmer.

Simmer until reduced by half. Strain the liquid using a fine mesh strainer.

Add the berries to the hot liquid and stir to release juices in the sauce without killing the tender berries.

Season to taste with salt and pepper and reserve sauce for later.

Pork Tenderloin

Preheat barbeque: 2 burners set to medium high (375F) (190C), and 2 other burners set to low setting (275F) (135C). Brush grill with oil to prevent sticking.

Season the pork with salt and pepper, sprinkle evenly with rosemary and drizzle with olive oil.

Place the pork tenderloins directly on the grill over the medium high heat burners.

Cook for 3-4 minutes or until nice golden char marks are achieved.

Flip the tenderloin and continue to cook the pork until both sides are nicely charred. Roll tenderloin on its sides to get equal charring all over the loin and to provide more flavors.

Once the tenderloin is nicely charred, place the pork over low heat, close lid and cook a further 5 - 8 minutes, or until an instant read thermometer inserted in the thickest part reads (150F) (65C). Half way through cooking, turn the tenderloins.

Remove pork from the grill, loosely tent with foil and let rest for 15 minutes before serving.

Slice and serve with a spoonful of the wild berry sauce.

I've never made a peanut sauce, and don't even think I've had one in a restaurant. They are very popular, though.

The reviews on this were all good, except that if you use commercial peanut butter, either add more, or reduce the water to make it thicker. You don't need to do this if using natural peanut butter, apparently.

Gingery Peanut Noodles (Real Simple)

1/2 cup peanut butter
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
8 ounces spaghetti (1/2 box)
1 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1/2 English cucumber, cut into strips
2 scallions, sliced
2 tablespoons chopped unsalted roasted peanuts

Cook the pasta according to the package directions; drain and return it to the pot.

In a blender, combine 1 cup water with the peanut butter, rice vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, and ginger. Blend until smooth.

Add the peanut mixture, chicken, bell pepper, cucumber, and scallions to the pasta pot and toss to combine. Serve sprinkled with the peanuts.

BACON AND POTATO BREAKFAST BAKE (One Lovely Life)

1 (12oz) package bacon (I prefer nitrate-free)
4c diced potatoes (about 4 medium-small potatoes)
3 green onions
1c pepper jack cheese
1c cheddar cheese (I prefer sharp)
1/2 tsp dry mustard powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
3 eggs
1c milk
olive oil
salt and pepper

Cook bacon and crumble it. (I cooked mine in the oven on two foil-lined baking sheets at 375 degrees 20-25 minutes. You can do it any way you please.)

While the bacon is cooking, cook potatoes in a large saute pan with olive oil and a little salt and pepper over medium heat until golden brown. Alternatively, you could roast them in the oven or use leftover cooked potatoes.

Spray an 8x8" baking dish with nonstick spray. Place potatoes in the bottom. Sprinkle with pepper jack and cheddar cheese. Sprinkle with green onions.

In a small bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, mustard powder, salt, and pepper. Pour egg mixture gently over the potatoes, cheese, and green onions. Sprinkle bacon over top of all. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. When ready to cook, bake at 350 degrees 45-50 minutes, or until the center is set. Allow to stand 15 minutes before cutting.

I made this for dinner last night. I omitted the green pepper and cooked the potatoes separately and mashed them. Tangy Beef Pot Roast (Slow-Cooker) By The Canadian Living Test Kitchen There's a tang of vinegar and a touch of ginger in this streamlined version of sauerbraten. 1 tbsp vegetable oil 1 boneless cross rib pot roast or blade pot roast, (3 lb/1.5 kg) 3 cups sliced onions 1-1/2 cups beef stock or water 1/4 cup packed brown sugar 1/4 cup red wine vinegar 1-1/2 tsp ginger 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp pepper 1/4 tsp ground cloves 1 bay leaf 8 potatoes, halved 1/3 cup all-purpose flour 1 cup light sour cream 1 sweet green pepper, sliced Put sliced onions and potatoes in the bottom of a 5-6 quart slow-cooker. In Dutch oven, heat oil over medium high heat; brown roast on all sides, about 10 minutes. Place meat on top of onions and potatoes. Drain off any fat and add 1/2 cup of the beef broth to deglaze the pot, pour over the meat in the slow cooker. Combine remaining beef stock, sugar, vinegar, ginger, salt, pepper, cloves and bay leaf; pour over roast. Cover and cook on Low 7-8 hours or until meat tender. Discard bay leaf. Transfer meat to cutting board and let rest 15 minutes. With slotted spoon, transfer onions and potatoes to platter. Cover and keep warm. Sauce: In small bowl, whisk flour into sour cream; whisk in 1/2 cup (125 mL) of the cooking juices. Whisk mixture back into pot. Add green pepper. Turn to High heat and cook 15 minutes until thickened. Slice beef; add to platter. Serve with sauce.

I've been wanting to make this for a while, and last nite I did. My croutons got soggy, but other than that it was great. Maybe I didn't toast them enough, I'm not sure. It's originally Ina's recipe, but I was looking at this blog and used it from here. It calls for a little less dressing. It fed 4 of us, along with Pasta Puttanesca. Greek Panzanella (Gorging George blog) Adapted (only a little) from Barefoot Contessa How Easy Is That? by Ina Garten 1/4 cup olive oil 1 boule/loaf rustic bread, cut into 1-inch cubes) salt and pepper 1 English cucumber, halved, seeded, and sliced 1/2-inch thick 1 red bell pepper, diced into large pieces 1 yellow bell pepper, diced into large pieces 1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, halved 1/2 of a small red onion, thinly sliced 1/2 lb feta cheesed, diced into bite-sized pieces 1/2 cup kalamata olives, pitted and halved dressing 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 tsp dried oregano 1/2 tsp dijon mustard Preheat oven to 400F. Toss bread with olive oil and salt and pepper. Spread evenly on a baking pan and bake in the oven for 8-12 minutes until browned. Remove from oven and let cool. Combine remaining salad ingredients (minus dressing) in a large bowl and toss gently with your hands. To make the dressing, combine all the ingredients in a small canning jar (or any container you have with a very leakproof lid). Put the lid on and vigorously shake. Note: Ina (and many other cookbooks) suggest putting all the dressing ingredients; minus the oil into a small bowl and whisking together, then suggest you slowly add the oil and whisk away (while somehow magically keeping your small bowl steady) in order to create what's called an emulsion. But here's the secret: if you have mustard in your vinaigrette, it will do all the work for you, as long as you shake up your ingredients really well. Sure this isn't what you'd do to impress the chef if you were in culinary school-- but we're at home, why make things harder on yourself? Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the bowl, add the bread on top, then lightly toss the salad together. Let the salads flavours combine for 15-30 minutes before serving. This will allow the bread to soak up some of the dressing, while still staying crunchy. Here is a link that might be useful: Greek Panzanella

A winner and made it several times! Grits and greens with my additions 3 cups milk 1 cup water Use chicken stock skip the bullion cubes 1 chicken bouillon cube 1 cup "quick" grits 1 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 1 lb. greens (mustard, turnip, collard, spinach, chard, or any combo of these) or equivalent amount of frozen or canned greens Use good GLORY CANNED SEASON TURNIP GREENS 1 Tbsp. bacon drippings (or oil or butter) don't need several slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled salt and pepper to taste Directions: In large heavy saucepan or pot heat the milk, water and bouillon cube to just below a boil. Slowly whisk in grits and cook for 5-10 minutes or until thickened, stirring often to prevent scorching. When grits are thickened, stir in 1 and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese and allow to melt (reserve 1/4 cup for top). Remove from heat. Meanwhile, wash greens and heat bacon drippings in large skillet over high heat. Put greens in skillet while still a little wet from washing. Cook until thoroughly wilted, then drain. If using frozen greens, just heat and drain well; if canned, just drain well. Chop greens up very fine. Stir into grits mixture. Add salt and pepper to taste. Pour into casserole dish (I use 2 pie pans and freeze one of these for later). Top with crumbled bacon and remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees F until bubbly, about 20-25 minutes. You want it to still be a little bit loose. It will thicken as it stands. Use broiler to brown top. This freezes well. Just thaw beforehand and cook as above, adding another 10-15 minutes
