I have been noticing that my food tastes really good, but sometimes doesn't look so appealing. :) This is one of those... When I was looking back at the pictures I took of this dish I thought there were worms crawling over my pork. Well, all I can say is they were some yummy worms! :)
Pork with Orange Sauce
4 large carrots, cut into 1" chunks
1 whole pork tenderloin, about 1 pound
1 large navel orange
1 t. olive oil
1 small red onion
In 9" glass pie plate, combine carrots with 1/3 c. water. Cover with vented plastic wrap and microwave 6-7 minutes or until tender. Cut pork into 1 1/4 " thick slices. Press each slice to flatten slightly. Season both sides with sea salt and pepper. From orange, zest 1/2 t. peel and squeeze 1/2 c. juice. Heat large skillet on medium-high heat until hot. Add oil, then pork in a single layer. Sprinkle onion around pork. Cook 4 minutes or until pork browns. Turn pork over and stir onion. Cook an additional 4 minutes or until pork is barely pink in center. Transfer pork to plate, leave onion in skillet. Add orange peel, orange juice to skillet, cook 1 minute. Stir occasionally. Serve pork over carrots, then top with onions.
