Coating the meat in flour dries the surface so it can get a nice crust and helps thicken the sauce. Feel free to try this recipe with chicken cutlets, or turkey cutlets, halved horizontally.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 lemons, 1 zested and juiced, 1 very thinly sliced
1 pork tenderloin, cut into 1-inch slices and pounded 1/4 inch thick
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
3/4 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons sliced fresh chives

Steps:

  • Place flour in a shallow dish and stir in 1 teaspoon lemon zest. Season pork with salt and pepper, then coat with flour, shaking off excess.
  • In a large skillet, heat oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high. In batches, cook pork until browned and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and tent loosely with foil.
  • Reduce heat to medium, add garlic and remaining tablespoon butter, and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds.
  • Add broth and cook, stirring, until reduced by half, 4 minutes. Return pork to pan along with any accumulated juices and lemon slices; cook until sauce has thickened slightly, 2 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with chives.

SAUTEED PORK MEDALLIONS WITH LEMON-GARLIC SAUCE



Sauteed Pork Medallions With Lemon-Garlic Sauce image

I found this recipe in Woman's Day. It was an advertisement for pork. Sounds good, and it's a quick dinner!

Provided by Chris Reynolds

Categories     Pork

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb pork tenderloin, trimmed
1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon plus 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, divided
2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup dry white wine (for non-alcoholic, substitute low-sodium chicken broth)
1/2 cup chicken broth, low-sodium
grated zest and 1 tablespoon lemon juice, from 1 lemon
3/4 teaspoon dried sage or 3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary

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:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh lemon juice and zest.
  • If you don't have Chinese rice wine, you can substitute dry sherry or white wine.
  • Be sure to slice the pork thinly so that it cooks quickly and evenly.
  • If you like a spicier dish, add more red pepper flakes or chili sauce.
  • Serve the pork with rice, noodles, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

This Spicy Lemon Pork Sauté is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The pork is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is tangy and spicy. Serve it with rice, noodles, or vegetables for a complete meal.
