  • 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.
