Using meat mallet or rolling pin, flatten pork between sheets of waxed paper to about 1/4 in. thickness. Season both sides of pork with pepper. Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium high heat. Add pork and saute until brown and cooked through, about 4 min. per side. Transfer to plate.

Add shallots to same skillet. Cook 30 seconds. Mix in mustard and chicken broth and simmer until reduced by 1/4, about 5 minutes. Stir in maple syrup and vinegar.
