A delicious but simple way of serving a pork steak with a fresh sage butter. A quick and easy dinner or supper meal that takes very little effort. Try to get lean pork steaks with only a small piece of fat around the edge. This dish is best served with oven roasted potatoes, and fresh vegetables, such as buttered cabbage and leeks, or glazed carrots.

Serves: 4
Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

4 - 6 oz lean pork loin steaks
6 oz butter for the sauce
2 oz extra butter
½ cup of dry white wine
Handful of fresh sage leaves, finely chopped
Juice of half fresh lemon (you can use ready prepared lemon juice, but it is not so nice)

METHOD:

On a chopping board, lightly beat the pork steaks to tenderize. Season and set aside.

Using a large frying pan, melt the butter until sizzling and starting to turn brown. Add the wine and stir for a couple of minutes, letting the alcohol burn off. Add a good squeeze of lemon juice, turn off the heat and add the sage. Stir and leave to one side.

Using another frying pan, add the extra butter and pan fry the pork steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side, until lightly brown and cooked through.

Transfer the steaks to the frying pan with the sauce and heat through for approximately 2 minutes.

Serve with your choice of vegetables.
