  1. Slice across the grain, into approximately 8 half-inch thick pieces:
    • 3 lb pork tenderloin
  2. Place each pork piece between two sheets of plastic wrap.
  3. Evenly pound meat with a meat tenderizer mallet using gentle taps with the flat end of the mallet until 1/4-inch thick.
  4. Season both sides of the pork cutlets with:
    • salt & pepper
  5. In a small plate combine:
    • 1 cup all-purpose flour
    • salt & pepper
  6. Press pork cutlets into flour mixture until thoroughly covered. Shake off excess flour and reserve.
  7. In a large non-stick skillet, over medium-high heat add:
    • 1 1/2 TBS vegetable oil
  8. Sauté 4 cutlets for 3 minutes on one side, flip over and saute the other side for 2 minutes.
  9. Remove cutlets to serving dish, cover with foil.
  10. Sauté other 4 cutlets and repeat steps 8 & 9.
  11. Deglaze pan with:
    • 1/2 cup dry white wine
    • 2 tsp garlic, minced
  12. Cook until garlic is slightly browned, approximately 2 minutes.
  13. Stir in:
    • 1 cup chicken broth
    • 1/3 cup lemon juice
    • 3 TBS capers, drained
  14. Return cutlets into pan and cook on each side for 1 minute. Transfer back to serving dish, covered with foil.
  15. Finish sauce by adding:
    • 3 TBS unsalted butter
    • 1-2 lemons, sliced
  16. Once butter melts, pour sauce over cutlets and serve.
