Pork Medallions with Mustard-Caper Sauce
Ingredients
- 1 lb pork tenderloin, any outer connective tissue removed, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup sliced shallots
- 2 cups low-salt chicken broth
- 4 Tbsp whipping cream
- 3 Tbsp drained capers
- 2 Tbps coarse-grained Dijon mustard
Method
1 Using meat mallet or rolling pin, flatten pork rounds slightly to an even 1/2-inch thickness (if the cuts aren't an even 1/2 inch). Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
2 Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork to skillet and sauté until brown and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer pork to plate.
3 Add shallots to skillet and stir 1 minute. Add chicken broth and cream. Boil until sauce is thick enough to coat spoon, stirring up browned bits, 3-5 minutes. Mix in capers and mustard. Return pork to sauce. Simmer mixture until pork is heated through, about 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
Serves 4.
