Pork Scallops With Dijon Sauce
- 1 Tbsp. butter
- 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
- 1 1/4 lb. lean pork scallops
- 1/4 c. dry white wine
- 1/2 c. chicken broth
- 1 c. heavy cream
- 1 tsp. Dijon mustard
- salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- Heat half the butter and half the oil in each of 2 large, heavy skillets over medium-high heat.
- Add just enough scallops to each hot skillet so they do not overlap.
- (If skillet is crowded, pork will steam rather than brown.) Cook about 1 minute on each side or until browned.
- Transfer the cooked scallops on a platter and cover tightly to keep warm while you cook remaining scallops. Discard fat in skillets.
- Add half the wine and half the broth to each skillet; cook over high heat 1 minute, scraping up bits from bottom.
- Consolidate wine/broth mixture in one skillet.
- Boil, uncovered, until reduced to 1/3 cup.
- Add cream and boil, uncovered, until sauce is reduced to about 3/4 cup or until it lightly coats back of spoon.
- Turn off heat; whisk in mustard. Add to sauce any juices that have collected from the pork.
- Pour sauce over pork or serve separately.
