Pecan-Crusted Pork Medallions with Spicy Peach Chutney

A spicy peach chutney can be a great way to jazz up pork or chicken and is also good for using up fresh fruit that is about to go bad. Peach season will soon be over and making some chutney allows you to extend summer’s bounty a little longer. Chutney’s are perfect for people who like sweet/hot contrasts in their food.

What’s not to love about Chutney- It’s sugar and spice and everything nice! 🙂

This pork would also be delicious on its own. The coating is a panko crumb/pecan mixture and it fries up extra crisp with a nice nutty, buttery flavor. Start the pork in the skillet to get it nicely browned and then finish it in the oven. I think this method helps keep the pork moister and more tender than cooking it all the way in a hot skillet.

The chutney is made up of chunks of fresh, sweet peaches, plump golden raisins, plus jalapenos, garlic, and ginger, making it one flavorful chutney.

    What a simple elegant dish. Plus I love chutney and peaches. I tarried on the site
    because of the comfort food of mac n cheese and the chicken cobbler casserole. But I am always looking for a quickie elegant ‘I am having people over for dinner’ recipe.

      Peach Chutney is so wonderful isn’t it Carol! I love the way it tastes with pork.

  2. Yum, that peach chutney sounds delicious! I made a mango chutney a little bit back but now I’m thinking I need to make peach. And I love that you crusted the pork in pecans – my favorite!
