Categories     Marinade     Pork     Fry     Dinner

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 small pork tenderloins,each 3/4 to one lb (375 to 500g)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tbsp (25 mL) unsalted butter
2 tbsp (25 mL) olive oil
1/4 cup (50 mL) grainy mustard
2 tbsp (25 mL) maple syrup
4 tsp (20 mL) balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup (50 ml) all-purpose flour
1/4 cup (50 mL) finely diced Vidalia or other sweet onion
2 cups (500 mL) low-sodium beef or chicken broth
2 to 3 tbsp (25 to 45 mL) thinly sliced green onions, snipped chives or chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Remove pork's exterior tough silver skins and any fat; then crosswise cut into 1-1/2 inch-thick (4cm) chunks.Up-end on plastic wrap; cover with more plastic. Use a meat pounder or heavy frying pan to easily flatten into medallions to about 1/2 inch (1 cm) thick. Lightly season with salt and more generously with freshly ground black pepper. (Do not use any salt if tenderloins were purchased with as "seasoned.") Refrigerate until needed, up to a day. Melt butter and mix with olive oil (all of this mixture may not be needed). Stir mustard with syrup and vinegar. Assemble remaining ingredients, as medallions saute very quickly. Saute pork medallions in 3 or 4 batches. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat until quite hot. Meanwhile, dip a few pieces of pork into flour; shake off excess. Add a tablespoon of oil mixture to a pan and several pieces of pork - do not crowd pan! Saute, adjusting heat as needed, until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Keep a on a deep late while repeating as needed with remaining pork, flour and oil mixture. The sauteed pork should be pink inside. When finished sauteing (and without cleaning the pan) return pan to heat and add oil if needed. Saute onion for 2 minutes or until softened. Slowly stir in broth; bring to a boil. Boil over medium-high heat 3 minutes to reduce slightly. Stir mustard mixture into sauce. Continue to bubble until sauce-like, about 6 minutes. Return pork and any juices to sauce; heat 2 minutes, turning medallions once, or until hot.
