Peppered Pork Cutlet with Onion Gravy
Yield: Makes 4 servings
Ingredients:
1/2
teaspoon paprika

1/4
teaspoon ground cumin

1/8
teaspoon ground red pepper (optional)

1/4
teaspoon black pepper

4
boneless pork cutlets (4 ounces each), trimmed of fat

2
cups thinly sliced onions

2
tablespoons flour, divided

3/4
cup water

1-1/2
teaspoons chicken bouillon granules

2
tablespoons fat-free (skim) milk

1/4
teaspoon salt



 
Preparation:
1.
In a small bowl, combine paprika, cumin, ground red pepper, if desired, and black pepper; blend well. Sprinkle mixture evenly over one side of each cutlet and press down gently to adhere. If time allows, let stand 15 minutes to absorb flavors.

2.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Coat skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Add pork, seasoned side down, and cook 3 minutes or until richly browned. Remove from skillet and set aside on a plate, seasoned side up.

3.
Increase heat to medium high, coat skillet with cooking spray, add onions to pan, and cook 4 minutes or until richly browned, stirring frequently. Sprinkle with 1-1/2 tablespoons flour; toss to coat. Add water and bouillon, stir to blend and bring to a boil. Add cooked pork and any accumulated juices; spoon some of the sauce over pork. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 20 minutes, or until pork is no longer pink in center.

4.
Place pork on a serving platter and set aside. Stir milk into onion mixture, or, for thicker consistency, blend together milk and 1/2 tablespoon flour and add to onion mixture. Add salt and cook 1 to 2 minutes. Spoon sauce over and around pork.
