Pork Tenderloin With Port Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 tablespoons olive oil or 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
    2 (1 lb) pork tenderloin, silver skin removed, and sliced crosswise into 1 inch pieces
    coarse salt
    fresh ground black pepper
    1/2 cup port wine
    1 cup chicken stock
    2 tablespoons unsalted butter
    1 teaspoon red wine vinegar, plus more to taste if desired
Preparation
    Heat oil in a medium, heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat.
    Pat pork dry, and season with salt and pepper.
    Cook pork in oil until brown, about 4 minutes or until cooked to desired doneness.
    Transfer to a warm platter; set aside.
    Remove skillet from heat.
    Discard fat, and add port; return skillet to heat.
    Deglaze pan, scraping with a wooden spoon to loosen the browned bits from the bottom.
    Continue cooking until sauce is reduced to about 2 tablespoons.
    Add stock, and cook until sauce is lightly syrupy, about 4 minutes.
    Whisk in butter, a little at a time, gently shaking pan while whisking.
    Stir in vinegar.
    Taste, and adjust for seasoning.
    Spoon sauce over pork, and serve immediately.
