To prepare chutney:> Combine cranberries, sugar, currants, apricots,

cinnamon, cayenne pepper, cranberry juice and ginger in a heavy saucepan. Cook

over medium heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Increase heat to high;

boil 10 minutes. Pour into a bowl. (Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight

container.)

To prepare pork:> Preheat the oven to 350 degrees; place a cake rack

over a shallow baking pan (such as a jellyroll pan), and coat the rack with

cooking spray. Set aside.

Combine soy sauce, wine, oregano and 1 teaspoon garlic powder in a bowl; slowly

whisk in oil to emulsify. Add pork; marinate 10 minutes at room temperature (or

refrigerate overnight). Drain pork, discarding marinade. Season pork with salt,

pepper and garlic powder to taste. Arrange pork on prepared rack; bake about 35

minutes or to an internal temperature of 165 degrees.

Let pork stand about 5 minutes, then slice 1/2-inch thick. Spoon some warm

chutney onto each serving plate; arrange pork slices on top.
