CRANBERRY GLAZED PORK ROAST
Meet the Cook: Many pork recipes were too spicy for me, so I decided to try this sweeter alternative. That was 18 years ago, and it became a family favorite. It tastes great the day after in a cold sandwich, too. Today, our two daughters make this roast often. We also have eight grandchildren and 25 great-grandchildren. -Madeline Strauss, Clinton Township, Michigan

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450°F.

- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning occasionally and adjusting the heat as necessary, until browned on all sides, about 4 minutes total.

QUICK SAVORY CRANBERRY GLAZED PORK LOIN ROAST
This simple, 1-hour roast is our favorite Christmas dish and voted most likely to be served if the President were to drop in for dinner- LOL! I love serving this entree because it causes me NO stress and everyone raves over it. While the pork is roasting, make another batch of the cranberry glaze to serve in a gravy boat alongside the sliced pork roast. For food safety, the new batch should not be prepared in same pan as the first if you have been basting directly out of the saucepan. If you basted out of another dish, you can use the same pan.

Steps:
- 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; sauté until 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.
Tips:
- To ensure the pork tenderloins cook evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The pork is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius).
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the doneness of the pork by making a small incision in the center of the tenderloin. The pork is done when the juices run clear.
- Let the pork tenderloins rest for 10 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.
- The cranberry-port sauce can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 3 days. Reheat the sauce over low heat before serving.
- If you don't have port wine, you can substitute red wine or chicken broth.
- Serve the pork tenderloins with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
