Number Of Ingredients 12

cooking spray
2 tablespoons shallots, minced
3 cups fresh blackberries (about 1 pound)
1/2 teaspoon fresh sage, chopped
14 ounces chicken broth, reduced-sodium fat-free
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon butter
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 pork tenderloin, trimmed
sage sprig (optional)

Steps:

Prepare grill to medium heat.
Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add shallots to pan; cook 3 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Add blackberries, sage and broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes or until blackberries break down. Press blackberry mixture through a fine sieve over a bowl; discard solids. Return liquid to pan. Stir in vinegar and sugar; bring to a boil. Cook until reduced to 3/4 cup (about 9 minutes); remove from heat. Stir in butter and 1/4 teaspoon salt, stirring until butter melts. Keep warm.
Sprinkle remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper over pork. Place pork on grill rack coated with cooking spray; cover and grill 20 minutes or until a thermometer registers 155* (slightly pink), turnning pork occasionally. Let stand 10 minutes. Cut crosswise into 1/4-inch thick slices. Serve with blackberry sauce; garnish with sage sprigs, if desired.
