Ingredients

3
/4 to 1 cup chopped fresh apricots

Need to make a substitution?
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Stand the roast upright, and pierce down through the center with a knife. Make a second cut to form an X, then create a cavity in which the apricots can be stuffed by inserting and rotating the handle of a wooden spoon. Stuff with the apricots, and salt and pepper to taste. Roast the pork for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees, and roast for 15 to 20 minutes more or until the meat has reached an internal temperature of 150 degrees. Remove to a cutting board, and let sit for 3 to 5 minutes before slicing. Cut in 1/2-inch or 1-inch slices, as desired.
