- Drain the pork, reserving the marinade. Heat remaining oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the apple wedges and cook for 1 min each side or until lightly golden. Transfer to a plate. Cook pork for 4 mins each side or until just cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil. Set aside for 5 mins to rest.
- Meanwhile, pour reserved marinade into the pan and bring to the boil. Cook for 2 mins or until the sauce thickens.
