Pork Tenderloin with Demi-glace

• 2 Pound Pork tenderloin
• Ground black pepper and kosher salt to taste
• 2 Slices Turkey bacon
• 2/3 Cup Dry red wine
• 1 1/2 tsp Fresh rosemary leaves, minced

• 1 Red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 1/2 Cup Sliced mushrooms
• 1 Cup Dried cranberries
• 1 1/3 Cups Veal demiglace

Pat pork tenderloin dry and season with kosher salt and black pepper. Cut turkey bacon into 1 1/2-inch pieces. In a heavy kettle or dutch oven just larger than the tenderloin, cook bacon over moderate heat until crisp and transfer with a slotted spoon to a bowl. Increase heat to moderately high and brown tenderloin on all sides, about 5 minutes total. Transfer tenderloin to a plate.

Add wine, cooked bacon, and rosemary to kettle and boil for 1 minute. Return tenderloin to kettle, cover, and simmer on extreme low heat for 25 minutes, turning occasionally. Transfer tenderloin to a cutting board and let it stand for 10 minutes.

Remove the bacon from the remaining sauce. Add red pepper, mushrooms, dried cranberries and demi-glace to kettle and boil sauce over moderate heat until slightly thickened.

Cut tenderloin into thin slices and arrange on a platter. Spoon some of the sauce over the tenderloin and garnish with rosemary sprigs. Serve remaining sauce on the side. (Servings: 8)
