Nothing complements pork tenderloin quite like gingered cranberries. This recipe is put over the top since the pork is flavored with Worcestershire sauce before roasting, while the cranberries are cooked down with red wine, orange juice, ground cinnamon, and fresh ginger. It's the perfect balance of savory, sweet, and citrusy that will cause you and your guests to keep reaching for more. Dried cranberries, sweetened and unsweetened, are readily available in most supermarkets. Sweetened cranberries are best for this recipe, as it nicely offsets the ginger and cinnamon. Serve with lightly dressed mixed greens or sautéed spinach alongside to complete the meal.
