Steps:
- In a small bowl, pour the wine over the prunes and let soak for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
- Trim the silver skin off the tenderloins. Cut the tenderloins into rounds about 3/4 inch thick. Season the rounds on both sides with salt and pepper.
- In a sauté pan just large enough to hold the rounds, heat the olive oil over high heat. When it smokes, add the pork rounds and brown, turning once, for about 3 minutes on each side, or until they feel firm to the touch. If they start to get too brown, turn down the heat. Transfer the pork rounds to a warmed platter and set aside in a warm spot. Pour the fat out of the pan.
- Drain the prunes, reserving the wine and prunes separately. Measure out 1/2 cup of the wine. Return the pan to high heat and add the 1/2 cup wine and the prunes. Deglaze the pan, scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, then stir in the meat glaze, if using. Boil until the wine is reduced by about half; if you have added the glaze, the sauce will develop a lightly syrupy consistency. Add the cream and boil until reduced to a light sauce consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
- Arrange the pork rounds on warmed plates and spoon the sauce and prunes over the top.

SAUTEED PORK MEDALLIONS WITH LEMON-GARLIC SAUCE
I found this recipe in Woman's Day. It was an advertisement for pork. Sounds good, and it's a quick dinner!

Steps:
- Cut pork into 12 slices, about 1-inch thick. Sprinkle pork on all sides with 1/8 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning once, until the pork is well browned and internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Transfer pork to serving platter and cover to keep warm.
- Add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil to skillet. Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the wine and broth. Increase heat to high and cook, stirring to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet, until the liquid is reduced by two thirds, about 5 minutes.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt, remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper, the lemon zest and juice, and the parsley. Serve the pork medallions drizzled with the sauce (makes a generous 1/3 cup; about 1 1/2 tablespoons per serving).
- Serve the pork with whole wheat linguine or brown jasmine rice. For a vegetable, steamed broccoli rabe or spinach.
Tips:
- To ensure the pork medallions are cooked evenly, make sure they are all of uniform thickness.
- Sear the pork medallions over high heat to create a beautiful crust and lock in the juices.
- Once seared, reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking the pork medallions until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 155°F (68°C) for medium.
- To prevent the prunes from burning, add them to the pan towards the end of the cooking process.
- Serve the pork medallions immediately with the prune sauce and any desired sides.
Conclusion:
This sautéed pork medallions with prunes recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The pork medallions are seared until golden brown and then simmered in a flavorful prune sauce. The result is a tender and juicy pork dish that is sure to please the whole family.
