Pork Medallions With Prunes and Red Wine

"From Rachel Ray - this is delicious & easy - one of her 30 minute meals. It makes a nice gravy so serve with potatoes, thick bread or rice that can soak it up! (I used boneless pork chops, trimmed of fat and pounded thin)."

directions

  • In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium high heat.
  • Gently pound out the pork medallions to 1/4 inch thick and season with salt and pepper.
  • Add the meat to the skillet in batches and cook, turning once, until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate, cover with foil and set aside.
  • Add the remaining olive oil to the skillet and add the onions and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the wine and prunes, and cook until the liquid is reduced by half, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the chicken broth, nutmeg, cinnamon, some salt and about 1 teaspoon ground pepper.
  • Lower the heat and simmer until the prunes are plumped, about 5 minutes.
  • Return the pork to the skillet; heat through.
  • Serve the pork and prunes on plates and top with the parsley.

  1. A winner all around.........we LOVED this, there was NONE left over afterwards! I followed the recipe quite strictly and made NO changes, and that is why it is 5 stars - excellent flavours and textures and not too many seasonings, which can "kill" a recipe sometimes. Thanks MA Hiker for a divine meal which I will be making again and again!! Just one point, it was VERY difficult to measure an 1/8 of a teaspoon of cinnamon, so I just sprinked a bit in.....it seemed okay to us!!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I have been a member of recipezaar and food.com for years. This is definitely my go-to place for recipes and love that I can have all my individual cookbooks to sort and store recipes. ? I like to experiment when I cook and find that I rarely follow a recipe as it is written. I am also pretty health conscious and try to cook low-fat for regular everyday meals (you can't skimp on the rich stuff for holiday meals & treats!). I also avoid processed foods and use fresh wholesome ingredients whenever possible.
