This one-pan dish has flavors reminiscent of the Italian-American classic sausage-and-peppers, but is much lighter. We’ve swapped the typical sausage for lean and juicy pork tenderloin and added pickled pepperoncini for zip.

Yield: | 4 servings |
Ingredients
- 1 large pork tenderloin (about 11/2 pounds), trimmed
- Kosher salt
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 small onion, thickly sliced
- 2 red and/or yellow bell peppers, sliced into wide strips
- 6 cloves garlic, smashed
- 16 fresh sage leaves
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1/4 cup sliced pickled pepperoncini, plus 2 teaspoons liquid from the jar
- 1/3 cup dry white wine
- 2/3 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Instructions
- Preheat the broiler. Slice the pork on an angle into 1-inch-thick pieces; season with salt. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat; add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the onion and bell peppers; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook until the vegetables are crisp-tender and slightly browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet. Add the pork and sear over high heat until browned, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the pork to the plate with the onion and peppers.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the garlic, sage and tomato paste to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the tomato paste turns brick-red, about 1 minute. Add the pepperoncini slices and their liquid, then pour in the wine and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon or spatula. Add the broth and return to a simmer. Arrange the pork in a single layer in the skillet; add the onion and peppers and sprinkle with cheese. Transfer to the oven and broil until the pork is cooked through, 4 to 7 minutes.

Love! All of us! Manageable for a work weeknight. Made with already sliced pork, cut the garlic, and served with white rice.
Excellent – will make often. Forgot to add pepprocini and it was awesome. Added afterward on plate and again – awesome and different. Two different tastes depending on your preference. Will double sauce portions in future because it is soooo good. Thx

Phenomenal. I found the dish to be a great healthy alternative to sausage & peppers. Have made it a few times now!
It’s okay. There’s something about the overall flavor that I don’t care for.
