Pork tenderloin subs for the typical chicken in this delicious dinner. The addition of potatoes makes it a one-pot meal - no need to cook either pasta or rice.

Ingredients

12 oz lean pork tenderloin, cut into 1- to 1 1/2-in chunks
1/2 tsp table salt, divided
1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly ground, divided
3 spray(s) cooking spray, divided
3 small uncooked Yukon Gold potato(es), peeled, cut into 1-in chunks
1 medium onion(s), halved and thinly sliced
3/4 cup(s) water, or more if necessary, divided
1 medium yellow pepper(s), cut into 1-in chunks
8 oz cremini mushrooms, halved or quartered lengthwise (about 3 cups)
3/4 tsp dried rosemary, or to taste
1 cup(s) marinara sauce

Instructions
• Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat.

Sprinkle pork with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Add pork to skillet, increase heat to medium-high and cook, turning pieces occasionally, until browned, about 6 minutes; remove to a plate.

Off heat, coat same skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Add potatoes, onion and 1/2 cup of water; cook, scraping bottom of pan, 1 minute. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes.

Add yellow pepper, mushrooms, rosemary and remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper to skillet; sauté over medium-high heat, until vegetables are lightly browned, adding a tablespoon or two of water if needed to prevent sticking, about 7 minutes.

Stir in marinara sauce, pork and 1/4 cup water; bring to a simmer. Cover skillet, reduce heat to medium and cook until vegetables are tender and pork is cooked through, about 7 minutes.

Yields about 1 1/2 cups per serving.
