Ingredients
| 2 pepper Poblano Pepper |
| 1 tsp. Olive oil |
| 1 small White onions (diced) |
| 1 cup No salt added vegetable stock (or no salt added chicken stock) |
| 1/4 tsp. Salt |
| 1 ounce Semisoft goat cheese |
| 16 ounces Pork tenderloin |
| 1 spray Spray olive oil |
Instructions
Place the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the peppers, cumin, chicken broth and salt. Cook for about 20 minutes until the liquid is reduced by half.
Using a blender or mini-chopper, puree the pepper & onion mixture until smooth. Return it to the pan and add the goat cheese. Whisk it in as it melts until the sauce is smooth.
Place a large skillet in the oven and preheat to 425°F. When the oven comes to temperature, spray the pan lightly with oil and place the pork tenderloin in the pan. Roast for about 7 minutes and turn the tenderloin over. Roast, turning about every 5 minutes, for a total of about 20 minutes.
Remove the tenderloin from the oven, slice, and serve topped with the sauce.

This is a sauce that doesn’t seem spicy at first, but the poblanos give it a soft spiciness without a lot of burn. The sauce goes great on almost anything: beef, chicken or a more flavorful fish like tuna.
