Lime-Cilantro Pork Tacos

Ingredients
1  pound  pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut into thin strips
1/4  teaspoon  salt
1/8  teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper
2  teaspoons  olive oil
1 1/2  cups  thinly sliced onion
1  small jalapeño pepper, seeded and chopped
1/2  cup  fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1/2  cup  chopped plum tomato
3  tablespoons  chopped cilantro
2 1/2  tablespoons  fresh lime juice
8  (6-inch) flour tortillas

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle pork with salt and black pepper. Add oil to pan. Add pork, and sauté 4 minutes or until browned. Remove pork from pan; place in a bowl. Add onion and jalapeño to pan; sauté 5 minutes or until tender. Add broth; reduce heat, and simmer 1 minute, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Stir in tomato; simmer 2 minutes.

Return pork and accumulated juices to pan. Stir in cilantro and lime juice; cook 1 minute or until pork is done.

Heat tortillas according to package directions. Spoon 1/2 cup pork mixture into each tortilla; roll up.
