Pork Cutlets with Peaches and Almonds

by Hilary Gauntt on July 26, 2015

Here’s another great recipe for those wonderful peaches! Food Network star Michael Symon says that two of his favorite things are pork and peaches, and he created this simple recipe for his book “5 In 5”;  where every recipe has 5 fresh ingredients and cooks in 5 minutes! Prep time isn’t included, and salt, pepper and olive oil aren’t counted in the 5 ingredients, but let’s not nit pick here.  These are easy and delicious recipes!

It’s hard to get my grandson Wyatt to eat protein, and I can’t wait to hoodwink him with this recipe. The combination of butter, toasted almonds, fresh peaches and sherry vinegar is mouthwatering, and the fork tender slices of pork tenderloin melt in your mouth.

1/2 cup flour

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

6 (4 ounce) pieces pork tenderloin, pounded to a 1/4 inch thickness

1/4 cup olive oil

2 Tbs. unsalted butter

1 cup slivered almonds

2 peaches, sliced

2 Tbs. sherry vinegar

1/4 cup chopped fresh flat leaf parsley

Put a large skillet over medium high heat. Put the flour in a shallow bowl and season with salt and pepper. Season both sides of the port with salt and pepper. Dredge the pork in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess.

Add the olive oil to the preheated pan. Add the pork to the pan and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip the meat and cook until light golden brown, about one minute. Add the butter and almonds and cook until the almonds turn golden brown, about one minute.

Add 1/2 cup water and deglaze the pan, scraping with a wooden spoon to get up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Cook until the liquid is reduced by half, another 1 minute. Taste and adjust  the seasoning, adding salt and pepper as needed.

Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the peaches, vinegar, and parsley. Serve immediately. Serves 6. (I think less; it’s too delicious)
