Pork Medallions with Mustard Sauce
Remove pork slices from marinade. Heat the barbecue to medium high.
Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil marinade until reduced by half. Turn heat down to low and swirl in butter a little at a time. Do not boil.
Place the pork slices on the barbecue and grill over high heat about 3 - 4 minutes per side or until just a hint of pink remains. Transfer to a serving plate. Spoon a little sauce over pork and sprinkle with chives.
