Ingredients
- 2 pounds pork tenderloin, cut into 1-inch thick slices
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 large apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
- 1 cup apple cider
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Directions
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, and black pepper. Dredge the pork slices in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the pork slices and cook until browned on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the sliced apples to the skillet and cook for an additional 3 minutes, until they start to soften.
- Pour in the apple cider and chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to release any browned bits. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to low.
- Return the pork slices to the skillet, nestling them in the sauce. Cover the skillet and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the pork is cooked through and tender.
- Remove the pork slices from the skillet and set aside. Stir in the heavy cream and Dijon mustard to the sauce. Simmer for another 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- To serve, place the pork slices on a platter and spoon the sauce, apples, and onions over the top. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
- Enjoy your delicious Pork Normandy!
