Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour, 10 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 pork loin roast, boneless, 2 to 3 pounds
- salt and pepper
- 1 package seasoned stuffing mix
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 1/4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 1 clove garlic, cut in half
- seasoned salt
Preparation:
Heat oven to 400°.
Butterfly the pork by slicing about 1/3 of the way up the pork almost through, then flip over and repeat with the thickest part. Open it up and lay flat. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
Combine the stuffing mix, chicken broth, butter, and cranberries. Mix well. Spoon onto the pork and pat evenly over the surface. Roll the pork up and fasten with a few pieces of kitchen twine. Place, seam side down, in the baking dish.
Roast for 10 minutes; reduce heat to 350° and continue roasting for 45 minutes longer, or until pork registers 155° on an instant read thermometer. Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing into 1/2-inch slices.
Serves 4 to 6.
