Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large (about 1.5 pounds) Pork tenderloin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 8 ounces (sliced) Cremini or button mushrooms
- 4 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 1 teaspoon (chopped) Fresh thyme
- 0.5 cup Dry white wine
- 1 cup Chicken or vegetable broth
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Slice the pork tenderloin into 1-inch thick medallions. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Dredge each medallion lightly in the all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.
In the preheated skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil until hot and shimmering.
Sear the pork medallions in batches for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside, tented with foil to keep warm.
Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and start to brown.
Stir in the minced garlic and fresh thyme. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Deglaze the pan by pouring in the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Let the wine simmer for 2-3 minutes until reduced by half.
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Let cook for another 3-4 minutes to further reduce slightly.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Simmer gently for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Return the pork medallions to the skillet, spooning the mushroom sauce over the top. Cook for 2-3 minutes to reheat the pork and allow the flavors to meld together.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
