Instructions
Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.
Pork loin
8 minPat the pork slices dry, pound them lightly, and season with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a skillet, sear the pork for 3 minutes per side, then remove it from the skillet.
Apricots
5 minMelt the butter in the pan drippings. Add the halved, pitted apricots cut side down and cook for 2 minutes.
Simmer
7 minStir the mustard and honey into the water, pour into the skillet, and return the pork to the pan. Cover and simmer for 5–7 minutes, until the pork is cooked through.
Serve
Serve the pork with the apricots and sauce. Rice or mashed potatoes go well with this dish.
Tip: Lightly pound the pork slices to an even thickness so they cook evenly and the centers cook through before the edges dry out.
