Sauteed Pork with Peaches

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 lbs. pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut into 8 pieces
• 3/4 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
• 1 tsp. canola oil
• 1 red onion, thinly sliced
•  2 peaches, cut into 1/2-inch wedges
• 1/2 cup dry red wine
• 2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
• 2 tbsp. packed brown sugar
• 1/8 tsp. ground cinnamon

Makes 4 Servings (2 slices pork & about 1/3 cup peaches and sauce per serving)

1. Place the slices of pork between sheets of wax paper. With a meat mallet or rolling pin, pound to 1/4-inch thickness.
2. Sprinkle the pork with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook until browned, about 2 minutes on each side; transfer to a plate.
3. Add the onion to the skillet; reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring, until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Add the peaches and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and cook, stirring, about 1 minute. Return the pork to the skillet and simmer until cooked through, about 3 minutes.

Note: This recipe appears in the WW in 20 Minutes Cookbook. This is what I call elegant barbecue. I say this because I was at a BBQ joint this past weekend and I had pulled pork, chicken, cole slaw and macaroni and cheese. I was not impressed but I guess when you cook at home it's hard to find good food whenever you eat out. I wanted to cook my own summer pork dish after eating pulled pork. I really enjoyed this meal because it was succulent and flavorful.This quick and easy meal can be enjoyed any day of the week. Don't forget your favorite veggies!
