Pork and Apple Fajitas

We first had this in a Mexican restaurant near Mount Vernon.

The flavours were so good together that we recreated it at home.

• 1 large pork tenderloin* or 1 lb. boneless pork
• 1/3 cup soya sauce
• 3 Tbsp. sherry
• 1-2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 red pepper cut into strips
• 1 green pepper cut into strips
• 1 medium onion, sliced from root to stem
• 1-2 Tbsp. olive oil
• 1 or 2 apples, cored and sliced
• 1 Tbsp. butter
• 1 Tbsp. brown sugar (opt.)
• Tortillas
• Sour cream, fresh or prepared salsa
• grated cheese, lettuce and chopped tomatoes.

* I buy pork tenderloins at Costco where they are sold 4 or 5 to a package. They are very lean, are larger than those bought in a supermarket and are reasonably priced. I wrap them individually in waxed paper and freeze them in a ziplock bag so I can take just one out at a time if need be.

1. Slice pork tenderloin across the grain into thin slices.
2. In a small ziplock bag, place pork slices, soya sauce, sherry and garlic. Seal and let stand for an hour or so. Remove meat from marinade, reserving a little for later.
3. Prepare sour cream, salsa, lettuce, tomatoes and cheese, and warm tortillas. This meal is best served right from the pan.
4. Heat oil in fry pan and saute` onions and peppers until they begin to carmelize. Remove to a bowl and keep warm.
5. In same pan, stir fry pork until done, adding a little marinade to moisten it if desired.
6. In another pan, saute` apple slices in butter and sugar (if desired) just until they soften.
7. To serve, place a few pork slices on a tortilla, add some peppers and onions and a few apple slices. Top with sour cream, salsa, lettuce, tomatoes and cheese. Roll up and enjoy.
