Ingredients

0.6667
0.6667 cup port wine 4.0
4 oz dried apricots 0.5
0 1/2 cup Plums, dried, pitted 0.5
0 1/2 cup Preserves, apricot 2.0
2 tbsp bread crumbs 1.0
1 tbsp dijon mustard 1.5
1 1/2 lb whole loin pork chops 1.0
1 tsp salt 0.25
0 1/4 tsp black pepper 1.0
1 each medium onions 1.0
1 each fresh carrots 1.0
1 cup fat free unsalted beef broth 1.0
1 tbsp Butter, unsalted

Directions

Place a rack in a roasting pan and spray both with nonstick cooking spray. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Place the wine, 1/4 cup of apricots, and 1/4 cup of plums into a small pot over medium high heat and bring to a simmer. Remove from heat source and let sit 10 minutes until the fruit softens.
Drain the fruit over a bowl to separate from liquid. Set liquid aside and place fruit into a bowl and mix with 1/4 cup of preserves, bread crumbs, and mustard; mix well.
Cut the pork in half, lengthwise, leaving a 1/2 inch hinge so it opens like a book (do not cut all the way through).
Place the pork, cut side down, between 2 sheets of heavy duty plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin to 1/2 inch thickness. Sprinkle evenly with 3/4 teaspoon of salt and pepper.
Flip the pork so the cut side is facing up and spoon the stuffing evenly down the center, leaving 1/2 inch border. Fold the pork over the filling and tie with kitchen string to secure.
Place the onions, carrots, broth, and reserved port liquid from step 3 into the roasting pan. Place the pork on the rack and roast 45 minutes.
Brush 1 tablespoon of the preserves onto the pork and roast 5 minutes. Repeat brushing and roasting 3 more times with the remaining 3 tablespoons of preserves until a meat thermometer inserted into the center read 160 degrees F. Let sit 10 minutes.
Strain the juices from the pan through a strainer and into a small pot; throw out the solids. Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup of apricots and 1/4 cup of plums, and bring to a boil. Continue boiling for 1 minute. Remove the pan from heat source and stir in butter and remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
Slice pork into 12 slices and serve with sauce.
