Pork medallions quickly sauteed and served with a delicious and easy Port and dried cherry sauce. Revised from a recipe that didn't have enough of the delicious sauce. Ingredients:
1 lb pork tenderloin |
salt and black pepper |
vegetable oil |
2/3 cup port wine |
1/2 cup dried tart cherry |
1 1/3 cups low sodium chicken broth |
1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon rosemary |
1 tablespoon cold butter |
Directions:
1. Pre-heat the oven to 175 degrees. 2. Trim the silverskin from the pork tenderloin and slice into 1 inch thick pieces. Flatten the pieces into 3/4 inch pieces using the side of your fist or a meat mallet. Season with salt and pepper. 3. Over medium high heat, heat a large skillet until very hot. Film the pan with oil. Brown the slices of pork until golden, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side.(The pork will continue to cook while being kept warm.)Remove to a platter and keep warm in the oven. 4. Add the Port, broth, cherries and thyme to the skillet. Over high heat, bring to a boil and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until reduced to about 2/3 cup. Add any accumulated juices from the platter. Off heat, whisk in the cold butter. 5. Pour sauce over the pork. |
