Pear and Cherry Stuffed Pork Loin

August 31, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 11 Comments

Hi Everyone!

So happy it’s finally Friday!!  The past couple of weeks at work have seemed so long.  I am so grateful that the weekend is here.  Today I thought I would share with you a semi-fall dish, since the weather seems to be getting a little chillier here.

This is my Pear and Cherry Stuffed Pork Loins.  I adapted this recipe from my Apple Stuffed Pork Loin.  I purchased these pork loins from Trader Joe’s with no idea what I was going to do with them, until my CSA box came this week and it was filled with pears.  Honestly it seems a little early for pear season, but hey, I’m not going to argue it since I like pears.


Now I’ll be honest, these are not the best pictures, but don’t let that fool you.  These pork loins are tender, with a hint of sweetness, mixed in with some savory.  I really love the combination of sweet and savory together.  For a little added touch I added some drizzle of Reduced Balsamic Vinegar that I also picked up from Trader Joe’s.  I didn’t add it in the recipe, just added it to my plate.  This is a wonderful recipe that takes about 45 minutes to make.

I was undeceive about what I was going to serve as my side dish, so I asked on twitter, what should I make beans or Brussels sprouts?  Brussels sprouts was the one chosen.  So I decided to use one of my favorite Brussels sprout recipes, Orange Brussels Sprouts with dried cranberries.  Yum, I forgot how much I like this recipe.  Great choice my Tweeter Friends.

A sweet and savory stuffed pork loin filled with pears and cherries.
Serves: 3 servings
Ingredients
  • 1.44 lbs Pork Loin, thick cut (3 pieces)
  • ½ Tbsp. butter (I used Brumble & Brown)
  • ½ cup pear, peeled, diced into bite size pieces (120 grams)
  • 10 cherries, pitted, cut in half
  • ¼ cup onion, diced small
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • ¼ tsp. pepper
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • ½ cup chicken broth or apple cider, divided
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
  2. Cut a pocket into the thickest part of the pork, be careful not to cut all the way through. Season the inside with salt & pepper, set a side
  3. In an oven proof skillet, add butter, pears, cherries, onions and salt & pepper. Cook until tender, add ¼ cup of chicken broth and brown sugar. Stir until and most of the juice is evaporated.
  4. Add pear and cherry mixture into the pocket of the pork loin. If you have left over, just leave it in the skillet. Add Pork to skillet and brown on all sides.
  5. Add remaining chicken broth and bake in oven for 30 minutes or until pork is no longer pink.

Since these pork loins were pretty big, I decided to cut mine in half to save on calories, fat and save room for dessert.   I just have to remember not to get such a big pack next time I’m at the store.  I tend to forget it’s just my Husband and I.  Sometimes I’m glad he’s such a big meat-eater, so I know it won’t go to waste.  If there are leftovers I’ll make a pork loin sandwich topped with sliced pear and maybe some cheese.  Have you every had a pork sandwich from leftovers?  Oh man it’s amazing!!!  I am such a sandwich freak.  I really wish bread wasn’t on the you “shouldn’t eat list”!  I love it!  I could give up any food but bread.  So please, if we ever go to dinner, don’t get a bread basket because I’ll eat it all and ask for 2nds!

Well that’s it for me today!  I have a little time before bed so I’m thinking of my making yogurt cookies again, since I didn’t get any, well except a few out for the oven.

Have a great weekend!!

Toodles,

Jennifer

I want to give my apologies to the folks in the Philadelphia area. I seemed to have brought the California rain with me when I was there Thursday-Saturday. 😂 Hopefully you got some sun after I left.

This is a view if my livingroom. I really like how I styled my console table. The bunny sign and egg tree are from my friends @12timbers. I’ll be sad when Easter is over.

Today I am sharing with you a spring vignette that I created. I just love tulips this time of year. Though, they seem to be out all year at Trader Joe’s, which is kind of strange. I can’t wait until they get peonies and lilacs. My two favorites.

The candles are from my friends @goldhillcandleco. They are hand poured, 100% soy and have a wooden wick. They smell so fresh and clean. These two candles are from the March subscription box. I highly recommend.

Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t k Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t know it in California. We are still getting rain and it’s in the mid 50’s. We should be in the 70’s by now. I wonder what the summer temps will be like this year?
🌺
Even though it may not feel like Spring,  there is no reason why we can’t start prepping for it. It’s going to be time soon to plant flowers, add a floral wreath to the front door and of course a welcome mat to invite everyone to your home. 
🌺
I wanted to share with you my new welcome mat that I got from @cocomatsnmore. They just had their Spring release and oh my gosh so many cute ones. I love there welcome mats. They are thick, bright colors and fast shipping. I absolutely love the flowers and the saying “Live Life in Full Bloom”. It’s so very true.
🌺
What are you most looking forward to this Spring?

I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.

My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!

So much fun to add anywhere in your home.

Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Sprin Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Spring. I looked back last year at this time and my garden was starting to flourish. Boy you should see it now. It’s a big muddy mess. With all the rain and high winds we sure have a huge mess to clean. I can’t wait until we get some warm days. 
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my favorite vignettes that I created last year. I may have a slight obsession with bunnies. Every year I say no more buying bunnies, but then I end up with a few more in my collection. Lol

Have a beautiful day!
