Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Servings: 4

FOR ROASTS, CHOPS and TENDERLOINS

Cook to 145 F with 3 minute rest

Ingredients

1 pound pork tenderloin, lean, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 8-oz package sliced white mushrooms, OR brown mushrooms
1 1/2 cups chicken broth, reduced-sodium
1 cup uncooked white and wild rice blend*
1 tablespoon Italian herbs, herbes de Provence OR other dried herb blend
1 1/2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
Salt and black pepper

Cooking Directions

In a large skillet or sauté pan with a tight-fitting lid over high heat, combine pork, mushrooms, broth, rice, and herbs. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook 15 minutes.
Stir in mixed vegetables and continue to cook until liquid has absorbed, rice is tender, and pork is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve.

*Note: To make sure they’ll be done at the same time, use an already-combined mixture of white and wild rice. Look for a blend that has a cooking time of about 20 minutes.

Serving Suggestions

Nothing is easier than a one dish meal, especially for a busy weeknight.  Serve with a mixed greens salad tossed with a simple vinaigrette.

Tips and Tricks

Buying, Handling & Storage Tips

Sealed, prepacked fresh pork cuts can be kept in the refrigerator 2 to 4 days.  If you do plan on keeping the raw, fresh pork longer than 2 to 3 days before cooking it, store it well-wrapped in the freezer.

Butcher's Tips

Pork tenderloin makes an elegant entrée for a small dinner party but also can be roasted or grilled whole for quick weeknight dinner. When sliced crosswise (like a loaf of French bread), the resulting medallions also may be sautéed.

Convenient & Excellent

Not a favorite

Decent enough recipe in general. And VERY quick. However, watch the wild rice mix that you use. The one we used made it too salty. Definately, a problem with the rice&wild rice mix we had, but still probably won't try again.
