Super tasty. Not very pretty though - it is all beige

Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 lb. boneless pork loin
  • 3 Tbsp. Pickapeppa or Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 3 to 4 small parsnips, peeled and sliced
  • 2 pears, cored, sliced and/or chopped
  • 1/2 cup pear nectar or apple juice
  • Fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

1. Slice pork 1/2-inch thick; sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Brush with some of the Pickapeppa sauce.

2. In a 12-inch skillet, heat oil over medium heat; add pork and brown on each side. Remove to a plate; cover and keep warm. In same skillet cook parsnips and pears, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until parsnips are crisp-tender. Stir remaining pickapeppa sauce and pear nectar into the skillet. Return pork to skillet. Cook 5 minutes more or until just a trace of pink remains in pork. Remove pork and vegetables to a serving platter.
