Pork Medallions With Wine And Sage Recipes

Steps:

• Season medallions with salt and pepper.
• Heat olive oil in frying pan and sear medallions on both sides on high heat.
• Remove medallions and set aside.
• Deglaze the pan with the wine, then lower the heat and scrape the bits off the bottom of the pan stirring for 5 minutes.
• Add the consomme and sage, stir well, and add the medallions back into the sauce.
• Simmer until the pork is done to your liking. I like my medallions just after it has been cooked past med-rare, when it is still a little pink and tender. Using the touch test, it's done when it "gives a very little" when touched on top, in the middle. If it does NOT give, it is definitely done, perhaps a little over done.
• So, when your pork is done, whisk in the butter and serve the pork with a bit of sauce on top.

Steps:

• In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour enough oil to fill the pan about a third of the way.
• Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 360 degrees F.
• Season the pork with the Cajun spices, according to your taste. Season the flour with salt and pepper. Whisk the eggs until foamy and add water.
• Prepare the pork by dredging in the flour, then dipping in the egg wash, then back in the flour again. Fry the pork in batches, until crust is golden, about 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels to remove any excess oil. Serve with Smother Gravy and garnish with scallions.
• Mix well. Store in glass or plastic container with lid.
• Yield: about 1 1/2 cups
• In a heavy bottom saucepan melt the butter over medium heat, add the onions, and cook for 1 minute before adding the red pepper, celery, carrots, garlic, and the thyme. Cook over low heat for 5 minutes, until vegetables are tender.
• Turn the heat up to medium and add the Cajun spices and flour. Stirring constantly, saute until you can smell the spices and the flour starts to get a little golden.
• Pour the chicken stock into the pan while stirring constantly with a whisk. The gravy will start to thicken as it comes to a boil. Add the Worcestershire and reduce the heat to low to prevent the gravy from burning. Allow the gravy to simmer for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Yield: 4 cups

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and fry the pork on each side for 2-3 mins until golden brown. Set aside on a plate.
• Melt the butter in the pan and, when foaming, fry the shallots and mushrooms over a medium heat for 10 mins. Add the garlic and cook for another 1 min. Stir through the flour and cook for another 2 mins. Whisk through the madeira and boil for 2 mins. Gradually stir through the stock until the sauce is lump free. Add the thyme and mustard and season to taste.
• Return the pork to the pan and simmer uncovered for 5-7 mins or until the pork is cooked through. Stir through the cream and heat again until simmering. Serve with creamy mashed potatoes and wilted greens.

Steps:

• Place the flour, garlic salt, and pepper into a plastic bag. Shake to mix, the add the pork tenderloin pieces, and shake again to coat. Shake off the excess flour.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the pork medallions in the hot oil until golden-brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Pour in the balsamic vinegar and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium, and simmer until the pork is no longer pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the pork to a serving platter, then stir the lemon zest and capers into the simmering sauce. Continue simmering until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
