Instructions

  1. Step 1: Trim pork loin of excess fat, then pound to 1/4-inch thickness. Season both sides with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour until evenly coated.
  2. Step 2: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear pork for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown, then transfer to a plate.
  3. Step 3: Add remaining oil to skillet, sauté onion for 2 minutes until translucent. Stir in sauerkraut, carrots, and chicken broth, then simmer covered for 15 minutes until carrots are tender.
  4. Step 4: Return pork to skillet, add mustard and white wine, and simmer for 5 minutes until sauce thickens and coats the meat.
  5. Step 5: While pork simmers, toss baby potatoes with 1 tbsp oil, salt, and pepper. Roast at 400°F for 20 minutes until crispy.
  6. Step 6: Serve pork with sauerkraut mixture, potatoes, and a sprinkle of fresh dill.
