4 Servings

Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
12ouncesPork tenderloin; trimmed of fat
3tablespoonsFlour
2tablespoonsMargarine or butter
¼cupShallot; chopped
¾teaspoonCoarsely ground pepper
cupDry white wine
1tablespoonShredded orange peel
cupOrange juice

Directions

1. Prepare the pork by cutting into ½-inch slices, then pounding between 2 sheets of waxed paper until about ¼ inch thick. Dust lightly with the flour. 2. In a wide skillet, melt the margarine over medium-high heat. Add the pork, turning once, until browned on both sides. Do this step in stages if pan isn't large enough to handle all the pork at once. When the pork is browned on the outside, it should be thoroughly cooked through. Remove to a warmed serving platter, and keep warm in a 200 degree oven. 3. To the drippings in the pan add the shallots and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallots wilt, then add the wine, orange peel, and orange juice. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Cook until reduced to ½ cup or so. Pour the sauce over the pork and serve.
