Ingredients

1 cup water, divided
2 tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate
1 tablespoon molasses
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons canola oil
2 onions, chopped
2 cups diced carrots
2 cups diced parsnips
2 large cloves garlic, minced
Salt & freshly ground pepper, to taste
6 ounces cooked pork tenderloin, diced (1 1/2 cups)
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Preparation

Combine 1/4 cup water, orange juice concentrate, molasses and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl.
Heat oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions, carrots and parsnips; sauté until vegetables are browned in spots, 5 to 8 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Stir in remaining 3/4 cup water and cook, scraping up any browned bits, until liquid is absorbed and vegetables are tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Stir in pork and orange juice mixture and cook until pork is heated through and sauce has thickened slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in parsley and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve immediately
