Pork Medallions in a Mushroom Riesling Pan Sauce
- 1 pound Pork Tenderloin
- 1 pinch Kosher Salt
- 1 pinch Black Pepper
- 1 Tablespoon Chili Powder (The Regular Old Blend You Get In A Supermarket, Dont Use Your Fancy Extra Hot One)
- 1 whole Vidalia Onion, Diced
- 1/2 cups Riesling Or Another Sweet White Wine
- 1- 1/2 cup Button Mushrooms
- 2 teaspoons Flour
- 3 Tablespoons Chicken Stock (I Used 99% Fat-free, Low Sodium)
- Rinse the tenderloin and pat dry.
- Slice into 1-inch thick medallions.
- Sprinkle both sides with kosher salt and black pepper.
- Dust both sides with a good coating of chili powder; dont be afraid, the remnants of this in the pan help flavor your sauce.
- Heat a Dutch oven or a high-sided skillet over medium heat.
- Make sure your skillet isnt too huge, this is just a meal for two.
- If you have a large skillet, I suggest doubling the recipe, for non-burny sake.
- Spray skillet with olive oil Pam and place the medallions in the pan.
- Throw the diced onion on top.
- Let cook for 4 minutes, then flip.
- Let cook for another 4 minutes (or until cooked through), then remove the meat from the pan, leaving the onions behind.
- Add the wine, then whisk to remove the brown bits on the bottom of the skillet.
- After letting this cook for about 2 minutes, add in the mushrooms.
- Stir until the mushrooms are covered with sauce and let the sauce increase from the water in the mushrooms.
- Let this simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a small, separate bowl, whisk (or stir with a fork, if youre lazy like me) the flour into the chicken stock.
- Add to the sauce, and stir well.
- Let cook for another two minutes; the sauce should thicken.
- Add back in the medallions, toss and serve.
- I found there was around 4-5 ounces of pork per person using my .75 pound tenderloin.
- 4 ounces of pork with the pan sauce is around 200 calories.
