What's For Dinner Wednesday--Tuscan Pork Medallions

I'm a little behind--like 3 or 4 weeks.  Plus one day.  But who's counting, right?

This week's recipe is courtesy of the Taste of Home magazine my grandma has been giving me a subscription to for a few years now.

Tuscan Pork Medallions

3/4 lb pork tenderloin, cut into 1 in slices
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1 T butter
2 thin slices deli ham, chopped
1/2 tsp sage
2 T balsamic vinegar
1/2 C heavy whipping cream
3/4 C chopped plum tomatoes (I used Roma.  I don't know that there's really a difference.)
4 fresh basil leaves thinly sliced
1 tsp parmesan cheese

Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper.  In a large skillet, cook pork in butter until no longer pink.  Remove; set aside.

In the same skillet, saute deli ham in drippings until browned.  Add garlic and sage.  Cook 1 minute longer.  Add vinegar, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan.

Stir in the cream; bring to a boil.  Reduce heat; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until slightly thickened.  Add tomatoes and pork.  Heat through.  Sprinkle each serving with basil and cheese.

This turned out to be really good.  Wade especially liked the sauce.  We served it with rice and rolls and it was a quick meal to put together.  About 30 minutes, start to finish.
