Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 lb pork tenderloin
1 tsp salt, divided
3 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin, divided
1 small yellow onion, peeled and thickly sliced
1 medium red bell pepper, seeded and sliced into wide strips
1 medium yellow bell pepper, peeled and sliced into wide strips
1 c sliced mushrooms
6 clove garlic, peeled and chopped
1 tsp dried, ground sage
2 Tbsp tomato paste
1/3 c dry white wine
2/3 c low-sodium chicken broth
1/3 c grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

1. Preheat the oven broiler.
2. Slice the pork on an angle into 1-inch-thick pieces; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
3. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat; add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the onion, peppers and mushrooms and season with remaining salt; cook until the vegetables are crisp-tender and slightly browned, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
4. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet. Add the pork and sear over high heat until browned, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the pork to the plate with the onion and peppers.
5. Reduce the heat to medium and add the garlic, sage and tomato paste to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the tomato paste turns brick-red, about 1 minute.
6. Pour in the wine and bring to a boil. Add the broth and return to a simmer. Arrange the pork in a single layer in the skillet; add onion and peppers and sprinkle with the cheese.
7. Transfer to the oven and broil until the pork is cooked through, 4 to 7 minutes. Serve.
