Pork Loin with Parsnips and Pears

I found this recipe in Better Homes and Gardens magazine. I made it for dinner last week and was delighted to find it scrumptious, simple, and healthy!

1 1/2 pound boneless pork loin, sliced 1/2 inch thick, sprinkled with salt and pepper and Worcestershire sauce
olive oil
3 to 4 small parsnips, peeled and sliced
2 pears, cored and sliced
1/2 cup pear nectar or apple juice

In skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add pork and brown on each side. Remove pork, cover, and keep warm. In same skillet, cook parsnips and pears for 5 minutes or so, until parsnips are crisp-tender. Stir 2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce and apple juice into skillet. Return pork to skillet. Cook 5 minutes more, or until pork is done. Remove pork, parsnips, and pears to serving platter. Boil sauce, uncovered, until slightly thickened. Pour over pork and serve.
