Martha Stewart
Pork Medallions with Orange Sauce

   
Instructions
In a shallow dish, whisk together flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
Place pork slices on a clean work surface, and press with the heel of your hand until each is about 1/3 inch thick.
Lightly dredge pork in flour mixture, turning to coat completely; tap off excess.
In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat.
Working in batches so as not to crowd pan, add pork; sear until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter.
Add more oil to skillet, if needed. Cover with foil.
Add garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add capers, if desired, and citrus juices.
Bring to a boil, stirring up any browned bits from bottom of pan.
Cook until sauce is slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, as desired.
Serve sauce over pork.

Note: Rinsing Capers: Before using capers in any dish, soak them in a bowl of tap water for ten minutes, then drain.

When browning the pork, you may need to add more olive oil to the skillet between batches; reduce the heat to medium if the oil starts to smoke.
