  3. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter.
  4. Add half the pork, and cook over moderately high heat until golden brown all over, about 8 minutes.
  5. Transfer to a plate, and repeat with the remaining butter and pork.
  6. Add the shallot, parsley, rosemary, thyme, and red pepper to the skillet, and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until the shallot is softened, about 2 minutes.
  7. Add the wine, and simmer until reduced by half, about 3 minutes.
