Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter, divided
- 1 pork tenderloin (1 pound), cut into 1/4-inch slices
- 1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 8 small red potatoes, quartered
- 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) reduced-sodium chicken broth, divided
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 4 green onions, sliced
Method
- In a 12-inch skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium heat. Cook the pork for two to four minutes on each side or until tender, then remove it from the pan.
- In the same pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, then cook and stir until they're almost tender. Add the garlic, and cook for one minute longer. Stir in the potatoes, 1-1/2 cups of the broth, the Worcestershire sauce and the salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
- In a small bowl, mix the flour and the remaining broth until smooth. Stir the flour mixture into the mushroom mixture. Bring it to a boil, then cook and stir until the sauce is thickened. Stir in the green onions.
- Return the pork to the pan and heat it through.
