Cooking steps
  1. 1

    Pat the pork loin dry, then season all sides evenly with salt, black pepper, and dried thyme. Let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork loin on all sides until golden, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a roasting pan.

  3. 3

    In the same skillet, add remaining olive oil, onion, and garlic. Sauté over medium heat until the onion is soft and translucent, 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add mixed berries, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, and chicken broth to the skillet. Simmer over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries break down and the sauce thickens slightly.

  5. 5

    Pour the berry sauce over the seared pork loin in the roasting pan. Cover tightly with foil.

  6. 6

    Roast in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 45 minutes, basting with sauce halfway through to keep the pork moist.

  7. 7

    Uncover and continue roasting for 10-15 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

  8. 8

    Remove from oven and let the pork loin rest 10 minutes before slicing. Serve slices drizzled with the berry sauce.
