Moist pan seared pork tenderloin stuffed with couscous, dried cranberries, pistachio, mango chutney and Philadelphia Cream Cheese smothered in a velvety Philly Cream Cheese cream sauce.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1 stalk celery, diced
  • 1/2 cup chopped pistachios plus 2 Tbsp for garnish
  • 2 tablespoons chopped dried cranberries that have been softened in boiling water for 5 minutes
  • 1 clove minced garlic
  • 3/4 cup cooked couscous
  • 1/4 cup mango chutney
  • 1/4 cup Philadelphia Cream Cheese at room tempertature
  • 1 butterflied pork tenderloin
  • 1/8 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 pinch salt, pepper, and garlic to taste
  • 2/3 cup low sodium beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon mango chutney
  • 1/4 cup Philadelphia Cream Cheese

Directions

  1. Saute onions and celery for one minute over medium high heat just until soft. Add garlic and continue to saute 20 seconds until fragrant. Remove from heat.
  2. Mix together couscous, onion, celery, garlic, pistachios, cranberries, chutney and cream cheese until well incorporated.
  3. Brush tenderloin with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder (about 1/4 tsp each)
  4. Spread tenderloin with stuffing. Fold over and tie with butcher string. Extra stuffing can be eaten on it's own (very good) or used to stuff other meats like chicken breasts,
  5. Pour 1 Tbsp olive oil into a heavy bottomed pan turned to medium high. When pan is hot, sear the tenderloin on all four sides and then roast 25-35 minutes in a 425 oven.
  6. While the tenderloin is roasting, bring beef broth to a boil. Add the chutney and Philadelphia Cream Cheese and whisk until cheese is well incorporated. Continue to simmer on low stirring occasionally until the roast is ready to serve. When roast reaches an internal temperature of 145 for medium, or 160 for well done, remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
  7. Slice tenderloin into 1 inch pieces, arrange on a plate and drizzle liberally with the cream sauce. Garnish with 2 Tbsp chopped pistachios and fresh parsley.

    there are so many great recipes on this site. This one is one we will have to try. Pork Tenderloin is often on sale, but so boring usually - not with this recipe.

    This sounds excellent. I always find fruit pairs wonderfully with pork tenderloin. Definitely will keep it in mind.

    A quick note on this recipe for an easy way to butterfly a tenderloin:

    Remove the tenderloin from its packaging and place it on a clean cutting board with the fattier side down.

    Place your hand on top of the tenderloin and cut into the thickest part, slicing across it about halfway.
    Stop cutting, and open the tenderloin up like a book. Do not cut all the way through.

    Starting at the end of the tenderloin, about an inch before the edges, run your knife from top to bottom horizontally to make a long slit in the meat. Be careful not to go all the way through. Do this every inch all along the width of the tenderloin which will cause the breast to "open up" like a fan and continue to flatten.
    Cover with plastic wrap and flatten more with a meat mallet or rolling pin.
    When it is nice and flat it is easy to stuff and roll.
