Transfer meat to a small roasting pan, and place in the preheated oven.

Remove from pan and cover loosely with foil, allowing to rest 10 minutes before slicing

For the sauce, return the saute pan to medium-high and add the remaining tablespoons of oil and heat until hot but not smoking.

Add onion and saute 7-9 minutes, stirring occasionally until transparent.

Add wine and chicken stock, stirring for several minutes.

Remove sauce from heat and skim any film off surface, then stir in blue cheese, parsley, salt and pepper; set aside, covering to keep warm.

Slice pork at an angle about 1 inch thick and drizzle generously with sauce
