1 (1-pound) pork tenderloin, trimmed |
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning |
2 teaspoons olive oil, divided |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
3/4 cup dried apple slices |
1/3 cup orange-flavored sweetened dried cranberries |
1 cup apple cider |
1/2 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth |
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh sage |

2. Reduce heat to medium; add remaining 1 teaspoon oil. Add onion and garlic; sauté 2 minutes or just until tender. Add apple and next 3 ingredients; bring to a boil. Return pork and juices to pan. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 50 minutes or until pork is done, turning after 25 minutes.
