Magnificant Fillet Of Pork
Ingredients
1 ounce dried tomatoes
1 Tbsp. unsalted butter
1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
1/2 C. red onion diced
1 tsp. garlic chopped
1/3 C. scallions minced
1/4 C. dry white wine
1 tsp. dijon mustard
1/4 C. cornichons (french gherkins)
pork fillets (10 ounce)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. tabasco sauce
Cooking Instructions
Bring 1 C. water to a boil in a saucepan, add the dried tomatoes, and set aside for 30 to 45 minutes. Drain, reserving the soaking liquid and cut the tomatoes into 1/2-inch pieces. Heat the butter and oil in a heavy skillet. When hot, add the meat and sauté’ it on one side for 4 to 5 minutes, then turn it over, cover the pan, reduce the heat, and cook the pork for another 5 minutes. Remove the meat to a plate, cover it, and set it aside to continue cooking in its own residual heat. Add the onion, garlic, and scallions to the skillet and sauté’ over medium to high heat for 1 minute. Stir in the wine and cook for 30 seconds. Add the reconstituted tomato pieces and their reserved soaking liquid. Bring to a boil and boil for 2 minutes to reduce the liquid. Then stir in the mustard, cornichons, salt and Tabasco. Arrange some of the sauce on top of and around each piece of meat and serve.
