From: Are You Hungry Dear? by Doris Roberts
1 1/4 lb pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut into 1 inch thick slices
4 tbsp butter
4 firm pears, peeled, halved, cored, and sliced
1 large yellow onion, halved and sliced
the leaves from 1 sprig thyme or 1 tsp dried thyme
salt and pepper
Pound pork to 1/4 inch thickness between plastic wrap or wax paper.
Melt 3 tbsp butter in a large saute pan and add pears, onions and thyme.
Salt and pepper to taste. Let cook until pears turn golden and onion is
soft.
In another pan, melt 1 tbsp butter and add one layer of pork slices. Salt
and pepper pork. Cook pork about 2 minutes per side, or until just cooked
through and a nice crust starts to form ( You will have to cook the pork in
batches).
Arrange pork on a serving platter and slather the pear-onion mixture over
the top.
