2 large oranges, peeled, divided into segments
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin, sliced into 1/2-inch medallions
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 shallots, chopped
1 red bell pepper, seeded, diced

Remove the white membranes and seeds from the orange segments; set
aside. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season pork
medallions with salt and pepper to taste; cook, turning once, until pork
loses its pink color, about 6 minutes. Remove from pan; set aside.
Add butter to the skillet; cook shallots, bell pepper and chile until
softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute. Stir in broth,
rum, brown sugar, ginger and lime juice. Cook to reduce by half, about 3
minutes. Return pork to pan with orange segments; cook to heat through,
3 minutes. Serve over rice if desired.
Serves 4.
