Recipe information
Yield
Serves 4; 3 ounces pork and 3 tablespoons sauce per serving
Ingredients
Rub
Preparation
Step 1
In a small bowl, stir together the rub ingredients. Sprinkle on both sides of the pork. Using your fingertips, gently press the rub so it adheres to the pork.
Step 2
Lightly spray a large, heavy skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium. Cook the pork for 4 minutes. Turn over and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, or until slightly pink in the center. Transfer to a large plate. Cover to keep warm.
Step 3
Increase the heat to high. Pour in the water, scraping the skillet to dislodge any browned bits. Boil for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the liquid is reduced to 1/4 cup. Reduce the heat to low.
Step 4
When the boiling stops, whisk in the sour cream and salt. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until heated through, whisking constantly. Don’t let the mixture boil. Serve the sauce over the pork. Sprinkle the green onion on top.
