Pork Tenderloin with Three-Berry Salsa image

My husband came home from a work meeting that had served pork with a spicy blueberry salsa. He was amazed at how tasty it was, so I came up with my own rendition without seeing or tasting what he had. It took several tries, but this is the delicious result. -Angie Phillips, Tarzana, California

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add half the pork and cook until a thermometer inserted in pork reads 145°, 2-4 minutes on each side. Remove from pan. Repeat with remaining pork and oil., Add wine, shallots and reserved berry mixture to the pan, stirring to loosen browned bits.
