  • 1 Smithfield® Golden Rotisserie Pork Tenderloin
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup thinly sliced onions
  • 3/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken stock

  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Place a large piece of aluminum foil onto a baking sheet. Place tenderloin in center of the foil; season with thyme, nutmeg, salt and pepper.
  2. Sprinkle the onions and cranberries over the tenderloin. Pull up sides of the foil creating a pouch but not sealing yet. Whisk cornstarch into chicken stock; pour mixture over tenderloin.
  3. Bring up all edges of the foil to meet. Seal the edges and roll down so it is sealed but not too tightly. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 30 minutes.
  4. Remove from oven; let stand 5 minutes before opening the package.
  5. Remove tenderloin and cut into 1 1/2-inch thick slices. Place sliced tenderloin onto a platter and pour onion cranberry compote with juices over top to serve.
