Instructions
Watch how to make this recipe.
In a medium saucepan over high heat, combine the blueberry preserves, chipotle powder, orange zest and juice and 2 tablespoons of the mustard. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Reduce the heat and to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until berries begin to burst and at a thick sauce consistency, about 10 to 15 minutes.
Pour into a serving bowl and set aside.
Rub the tenderloin with the remaining 1 tablespoon of the mustard and season on all sides with salt and pepper.
Put the pork on a foil-lined sheet tray on a wire rack and broil approximately 5 to 6 inches from the heat source. Turn the meat about every 3 to 5 minutes, cooking until an instant-read thermometer registers 145 degrees F, about 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside on a cutting board and allow to rest about 5 minutes, tented with foil.
Slice the pork and transfer it to a serving platter.
Serve with the blueberry sauce.
Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese
Malbec, Pinot Noir, and Sangiovese are my top picks for Pork Tenderloin. Pinot noir's light body is great for lean cuts, medium bodied sangiovese complement meaty sauces, stews, and other multi-ingredient dishes, and full-bodied tannic malbec pairs with fatty cuts and barbecue. The Agua de Piedra Gran Seleccion Malbec with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 14 dollars per bottle.
Agua de Piedra Gran Seleccion Malbec
Dense flavors of dark plum and chocolate, layered with toasted oak and a velvety finish that lingers and lingers. Pairs well with grilled meats, medium to strong cheese or simply on its own.
