Steps
- 1. Preheat oven to 425°. Drizzle oil over tenderloin and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- 2. Pulse blackberries and next 7 ingredients in a blender or food processor until mixture is fully blended and smooth. Transfer mixture to a small saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes or until slightly thickened. Strain out blackberry seeds, if desired.
- 3. Meanwhile, place a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat for 1 minute or until hot. Add pork and cook 2 minutes on each side or until browned.
- 4. Transfer skillet to oven. Bake pork at 425° for 8-10 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted into thickest portion registers 145°. Transfer pork to a cutting board and cover loosely with aluminum foil; let stand 5 minutes.
- 5. Cut pork diagonally across the grain into ½-inch-thick slices. Serve with warm blackberry sauce.
