- Slice the pork tenderloin at a long angle into 4 "steaks" and sprinkle with the thyme and a total of 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until very hot, but not smoking.
- Add the steaks to the skillet and cook, turning once, until well browned and just a bit pink in the center, about 7 minutes per side.
- Turn the heat down to medium if the skillet starts to get too dark.
- Put each steak on a plate to rest.
- While the steaks cook, core and slice the apple and thinly slice the cabbage.
- Stir together the broth, vinegar and sugar in a small bowl.
- When the pork has finished cooking, add the cabbage, apples, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to the same skillet.
- Cook, tossing, until slightly wilted, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the broth mixture and continue to cook until the cabbage is tender and the liquid has reduced slightly, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley leaves.
- Season with additional salt and pepper.
- Divide the cabbage and apples and any juices in the skillet among the plates with the steaks.
- Serve with a roll.
