Dinner Aug 22, 2011 - Marsala Pork Tenderloin

Hello everyone!  We had a wonderful weekend filled w/ some pool time, laziness and leftovers :)  I hope you enjoyed yours as well!  Monday brings us back to craziness and rushed dinners!  I recently got a cookbook from Pampered Chef: 29 Minutes to Dinner.  I LOVE it!!  It's got some amazing recipes that are yummy, easy and QUICK!!!  Most pork tenderloins take quite a while in the oven, but I was very pleased w/ this one.  As you may know, I'm not a big fan of pork anyway, but I was sooooo happy w/ dinner last night!  And now, may I bring you....


Marsala Pork Tenderloin

1 pork tenderloin, about 1lb
2 T oil
Salt & Pepper
1 bunch asparagus, trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces
1/2 small onion, cut into slices
1 can mushrooms, pieces & stems, chopped finely
2 T garlic, chopped
1 c chicken broth
1/2 c Marsala wine
3 T cornstarch
2 T butter
Instant Mashed Potatoes

Heat skillet on med-high and add oil.  Cut tenderloin into medallions, about 1/2" thick.  Salt and pepper both sides.  Cook in oil about 5-6min per side.  Remove from pan and cover to keep warm.  Add a little more oil to skillet and add asparagus, onions, mushrooms and garlic.  Cook 4-5min.  Whisk together broth, wine, cornstarch, salt & pepper in small bowl and add to veggies.  Bring to a boil and cook on med for 2-3min, or until thick.  Add pork and butter to pan and let simmer for a few minutes.  Serve w/ mashed potatoes and it's a meal!!
