Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb pork tenderloin
- 2 tbsp paprika
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium, finely chopped onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 tbsp, chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Trim any silver skin or excess fat from the pork tenderloin and slice it into 1-inch thick medallions.
In a shallow dish, mix together the paprika, salt, pepper, and flour. Dredge the pork medallions in the mixture, shaking off any excess.
Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, add the pork medallions in a single layer (cook in batches if needed). Sear each side for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium and add the finely chopped onion to the skillet. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream until smooth. Return the pork medallions to the skillet, along with any juices that have collected on the plate. Spoon the sauce over the pork to coat.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the pork simmer gently in the sour cream sauce for 10 minutes, or until the pork is fully cooked and tender.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve immediately over rice, egg noodles, or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
