Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) pork tenderloin

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 3 tablespoons whole-wheat flour

  • 4 teaspoons olive oil

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • ½ cup dry white wine or reduced-sodium chicken broth

  • 2 teaspoons snipped fresh sage or 1/2 teaspoon dried sage, crushed

  • 1 teaspoon snipped fresh rosemary or 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed

  • 1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth

  • 2 tablespoons water

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

  • 2 tablespoons snipped fresh parsley (Optional)

Directions

  1. Trim fat from meat. Cut meat into 1/2-inch slices. Place each slice between two pieces of plastic wrap. Using the flat side of a meat mallet, pound meat lightly until 1/4 inch thick. Remove plastic wrap. Sprinkle meat with pepper. Place flour in a shallow dish. Dip meat into flour, turning to coat evenly.

  2. In a very large skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil over medium-high heat. Add half of the meat to skillet. Cook about 4 minutes or until meat is browned, turning once halfway through cooking. Remove meat from skillet; cover and keep warm.

  3. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil to skillet; cook the remaining meat as directed above. Remove from skillet; cover and keep warm.

  4. To prepare sauce: Add garlic to the same skillet; cook and stir for 30 seconds. Add wine, sage, and rosemary; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add broth; return meat to skillet. Bring just to boiling. Cook, uncovered, for 2 minutes. In a small bowl, combine the water and cornstarch; stir into broth mixture. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more.

  5. Transfer meat to serving plates; top with sauce. If desired, sprinkle with parsley.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
