Ingredients

  • 1 pork tenderloin (1 pound), cut into 12 slices
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tablespoon capers, drained

Directions

  • Flatten pork slices to 1/4-in. thickness. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, salt and pepper. Add pork, a few pieces at a time, and shake to coat.
  • In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook pork in butter and oil in batches until juices run clear. Remove and keep warm.
  • Add the broth, wine and garlic to the pan, stirring to loosen browned bits. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced by half. Stir in the capers, lemon juice and rosemary; heat through. Serve with pork. Yield: 4 servings.

This was great, though I made a few changes. I used pork chops & didn't flatten them, and left out the rosemary. Still, will do these again.
