Ingredients:

Serving

2 1/2 tbsp olive oil, divided
1 (1-lb) pork tenderloin
3/4 tsp kosher salt, divided
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper, divided
1 lb small, ripe plums, quartered and pitted (about 6)
2 tbsp honey
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tsp chopped fresh thyme

Directions:

Preheat oven to 500°.
Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil to pan; swirl to coat. Sprinkle pork with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add pork to pan; cook 4 minutes, turning to brown on all sides. Place pan in oven. Cook at 500° for 15 minutes or until a thermometer registers 145°. Remove pork from pan. Let stand 10 minutes; slice crosswise into 12 slices.
Preheat broiler to high.
Without cleaning pan, arrange plums, cut sides up, in pan. Combine remaining 1 tablespoon oil, honey, and garlic, stirring well; brush plums evenly with honey mixture. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Broil plums 6 minutes or until lightly charred; sprinkle with chopped thyme. Serve with pork. Garnish with thyme sprigs, if desired.
Wine Match: The 2009 Red Diamond Merlot (Washington, $8) is smooth and fruity, echoing the sweet plums that highlight the roasted pork. Using peaches instead? Pour the 2010 Fish Eye Riesling (Australia, $7), an off-dry white with stone fruit aromas. -Gretchen Roberts
