Pork Loin Recipe

In the recent past, pork meat was considered by doctors a “totally unhealthy food”. But today pork isn’t anymore a “villain” ! It is considered  “the other white meat” and is a healthy alternative to red meat. Yeah!

Of course we should always chose lean cut options (not bacon, for example). The tenderloin is the leanest cut of pork  – as lean as a skinless chicken breast. Other lean cuts include boneless loin roast, boneless loin chops and boneless ham.

For the reasons listed above, pork tenderloin is permitted in Lite Goodies family :).

This Pork Loin Recipe is soooo good. The Dijon Mustard Sauce with Brown Sugar has a special flavor, combining sweet and sour perfectly … and it gets even better when eaten with pork. Yummy!

Two hours later you’re gonna prepare the steaks. Grease a frying pan with cooking spray and broil the steaks until they are golden brown, around 4 minutes each side. Put them in a serving dish.
