STEP BY STEP

Let’s make it.

Heat half the oil in a large skillet. Season the pork with half the salt and sear in batches over medium-high heat until the thickest strips reach 145°F (63°C). Set aside to rest for at least 3 minutes.
Add the remaining oil, onion and mushrooms. Cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden and their moisture has mostly evaporated.
Lower the heat. Add the garlic, paprika, remaining salt and pepper; stir for 30 seconds, then pour in the water and loosen the browned bits.
Add the spinach and stir until wilted. Remove from the heat for a minute, then fold in the sour cream and the pork with its resting juices.
Warm very gently if needed, without boiling. Divide the pork, vegetables and sauce into 4 servings.

Kitchen notes

Use sweet paprika for a mild sauce. Sour cream can become grainy if boiled.
