Elegant Pork Marsala

I have made Chicken Marsala with great success but never pork...until now.  Great recipe! The fresh mushrooms and wine gives this very simple recipe the "elegant" spin!

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 6 boneless pork loin chops (4 ounces each)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1/3 cup chopped onion
  • 2 turkey bacon strips, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 cup Marsala wine or additional reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 5 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 2/3 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth

Directions

In a shallow bowl, mix flour and pepper. Dip pork chops in flour
mixture to coat both sides; shake off excess.

In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, heat oil over
medium heat. Add pork chops; cook 4-5 minutes on each side or until
a thermometer reads 145°. Remove from pan; keep warm.

In same skillet, add mushrooms, onion and bacon to drippings; cook
and stir 2-3 minutes or until mushrooms are tender. Add garlic; cook
1 minute longer. Add wine; increase heat to medium-high. Cook,
stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. 
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and broth until smooth; add to pan.
Bring to a boil; cook and stir 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Serve with pork.
