I have said it all before.
Pork is one of the most versatile meats around and super easy to prepare.
When it comes to entertaining nothing is easier than this dish.
You can vary the stuffing ingredients to suit your tastes.
Lingonberry preserves can be found at Ikea. If you don't have any on hand cranberry sauce works well too.
You can assemble this dish in mere minutes and hangout with your guests while it roasts.
Serve with baked squash and brown rice pilaf.
Like I said. Easy. Just sayin'...
Stuffed Pork Loin Roast
- 1 boneless pork loin roast (approx 1.5 to 2 pounds)
- ~olive oil
- 1 onion diced
- 2 apples, peeled, cored and chopped
- 1 cup of bread crumbs
- half cup of chopped walnuts
- 3 slices of smoked ham or bacon diced
- 1 tsp sage
- 2 tsp lingonberry preserves or cranberry sauce
- salt and pepper
On a cutting board slice the pork loin lengthwise and open like a book.
Cover with plastic wrap and pound with a mallet to make it thinner.
In a frying pan heat some olive oil and add the onion and apples. Saute until softened.
Add remaining ingredients and combine well.
Spread over the pork loin evenly and roll up like a jelly roll.
Tie with butcher twine at each end.
Place on a rack in a roasting pan.
Roast until internal temperature registers 165F . ( about 1 hour or so)
Remove from oven , slice and serve.
Wine Suggestion: Chardonnay
Cheers!
