2 tablespoons sliced sun-dried tomatoes, packed without oil (about 6 pieces)
1/2 cup boiling water
1/4 cup chopped green olives
1/4 cup dry vermouth
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon chopped fresh or 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper

  • Combine tomatoes and boiling water in a bowl; cover and let stand 20 minutes or until soft. Stir in olives and next 5 ingredients (olives through garlic). Preheat oven to 400°. Heat oil in a 9-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Sprinkle pork with black pepper and salt. Add pork to skillet; cook 5 minutes, browning on all sides.
