Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 (2-pound) boneless pork tenderloin
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 medium red bell peppers, sliced
  • 1 cup dry white wine, or 3/4 cup chicken broth and 1/4 cup white-wine vinegar
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 medium lemon, cut into wedges

Directions

  • 1
    Combine garlic, black pepper and salt in a small bowl and mix well. Spread the mixture on all sides of the pork. Chill, covered, for 2 hours. Cut into 1/2-inch slices.
  • 2
    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat. Brown pork on both sides in the hot oil. Transfer to a plate.
  • 3
    Add bell peppers to drippings in the skillet. Sauté, stirring continually, until peppers are tender, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • 4
    Add the wine and broth to the skillet drippings, stirring to deglaze the skillet. Return pork to skillet. Cook over low heat until pork is tender, about 15 minutes.
  • 5

Grandma's Secret Trick

Grandma's grandparents were from Normandy, France, and their family recipes often featured apples and apple products that are abundant in that area. So Grandma sometimes prepared this dish as they did, using apple juice or Calvados, an apple brandy, instead of the white wine.
