PORK TENDERLOIN STEAKS WITH WILTED CABBAGE AND APPLES

Steps:

• Slice the pork tenderloin at a long angle into 4 "steaks" and sprinkle with the thyme and a total of 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

Add the broth mixture and continue to cook until the cabbage is tender and the liquid has reduced slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley leaves. Season with additional salt and pepper.
